Ya buddy me too. Just now came home and seen news that south africa cancels its pakistan tour. But its not shocking. Atleast 5 years if not 10 there will be no cricket team visiting pakistan. i think may be shri lanka might in 5 years while india, australia, south africa, england in 10years. It all depends on pakistan's internal problem. 5years is defenetly no country visiting pakistan. Only bangladesh will visit as they dont have much cricket to play.

South Africa has cancelled the Pakistan tour of its national cricket team later this year citing security reasons, media reports said on Saturday.
South Africa was scheduled to tour Pakistan in October-November and play three Tests and five one day international matches against the home team.
According to reports, the African country suggested that the venue of the matches be shifted to South Africa, but the Pakistan Cricket Board said it wants neutral venues.

To all my pakistani brothers.
It is better that foreign teams don't visit Pakistan.And Because of Security reasons.Security in Pakistan is not really good for anyone.Even When GHQ was attacked how can we assure others of safety.
Guys it may be Painful in the short terms but if you think in the long term it would actually save us from an embarrassment.When Sri Lankan Team visited Pakistan much was said that Their security will be excellent.But what happend.
In the end it was only due to the good driver or if anything had happend to the Sri Lankan team imagine what would be the embarrassment of Pakistan.
So it is better that until we have ample security any team should not visit because if anything went wrong then well it will very bad for Pakistan.

Guys you should be happy no other country teams visiting pakistan. Mr gillani said pakistan can't protect our own people how can we stop 26/11 like attack in india. If mr gillani cant protect pakistanis then how can pakistan will protect other countries teams? Its good for pakistan that other countries not visiting pak. If another attack takes place against cricketers then imagine what result of it would be guys.

Buddy bangladesh too might come pakistan. i doubt shri lanka's main players will come. They came india and gave alot interviews on pakistan. They said why pakistan security guards, police runaway from the attack spot and why terrorist shoot above bus roof area. Why it was not a suicide attack etc etc. They blamed pakistan for it. So most top shri lankan players wont come pakistan. Only 2nd rated team of shri lanka will come and also bangladesh.
Pakistan offers S.Africa matches at neutral venue
KARACHI Pakistan has offered to play South Africa in three Tests, five one-dayers and two Twenty20 matches in the United Arab Emirates later this year, an official said Saturday.
"South Africa were supposed to tour us but because of their security fears they declined to come and that's why we have offered them to play this full series of Tests, one-dayers and Twenty20 at the neutral venue of the Emirates," Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Ijaz Butt told AFP.
Butt said instead of coming to Pakistan, South Africa wanted to play the series on their grounds, which was not cost effective.
"If we play the series in South Africa, it would have incurred losses to us, so we have offered them to play in the Emirates and we hope they will agree to our proposal," said Butt.
The series would likely to be played in October-November this year.
Pakistan has been a no-go country for foreign teams since the 9-11 attacks on the United States in 2001 and the ensuing war on terror for which the Washington counts Pakistan as an ally.
Although South Africa toured Pakistan in 2003 and 2007, they refused to play a match in Karachi over security fears.
Pakistan's reputation as a "dangerous venue" was further hit by a terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team bus in Lahore in March last year.
The attack, which left seven Sri Lankan players and their assistant coach injured besides killing eight people, laid to rest any chances of Pakistan staging international cricket in the near future.
The International Cricket Council relocated Pakistan's 14 matches in the 2011 World Cup to the other host countries, India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
Pakistan was also forced to play its three home series -- against the West Indies, Australia and New Zealand -- in the UAE in the last two years after the three teams refused to tour over security fears.
Pakistan are also scheduled to play their home Test series against Australia in England later this year.
Australia have been refusing to tour Pakistan since 1998 over security fears.
