Australia puts off tour
Australia has postponed its cricket tour to Bangladesh because of concerns over player safety.
Cricket Australia chief executive James Sutherland said yesterday the tour, scheduled to start with a warm-up match tomorrow, would not go ahead as planned after Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs identified a serious security risk. Sutherland said he’ll negotiate with the Bangladesh Cricket Board regarding potential future dates. The Australians, scheduled to leave last Monday, were to play two tests — from October 9 in Chittagong and October 17 in Dhaka.
