The statement comes following the England and Wales Cricket Board's withdrawal of men’s and women’s teams from a tour of Pakistan for a limited-overs series next month.
Ramiz Raja, Chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), says the “western bloc” seems united after England became the second country to refuse to play in Pakistan.
“I am severely disappointed in England’s withdrawal but it was expected because this western bloc gets united unfortunately and tries to back each other,” Ramiz said in a video message.
The England and Wales Cricket Board withdrew its men’s and women’s teams from a tour of Pakistan for a limited-overs series next month, citing increased concerns about travelling to the region. It also cited player fatigue ahead of the Twenty20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates.
