International teams could avoid Bangladesh tour: Ex-ICC chief

At least 20 foreigners were killed when terrorists attacked an upscale caf in Dhaka this week, immediately creating doubts over whether England would undertake their tour to Bangladesh in September. 

“After what happened in Dhaka I fear that like Pakistan the Bangladesh board will also find it difficult to convince teams to tour their country,” Mani said in an interview.

“I am concerned that Bangladesh cricket might also be hit hard by terrorism like Pakistan cricket has suffered in the last few years,” Mani said.

“At a time when foreigners were killed in the attack it will be difficult for Bangladesh to convince England to play the series,” he added.
