Dhaka: Fresh comments by Bangladesh Cricket Board’s president Mustafa Kamal has led to speculation that Bangladesh Tour to Pakistan which would have ended three years cricket drought in Pakistan might fall through as he said that they would not tour unless ICC send their match officials, said a report in ESPN cricinfo.

"We won't go if everything doesn't happen within the standard practice, which is the allocation of match-referees, umpires and all things by the ICC," he said on Wednesday in Dhaka. "That [allowing officials from the competing teams] means we are not going there because ICC also has responsibility. If they don't take responsibility, then on what basis can I send my players," ESPN cricinfo quoted BCB’s president Kamal.

BCB took few steps to ensure that the tour would go on including a delegation approving the security infrastructure in Pakistan, and the ICC introducing a special dispensation that would allow "non-neutral match officials" for bilateral series in "exceptional circumstances", should it find it unsafe to appoint its officials for a series.

"I am the president of the BCB and also the president of the Asian Cricket Council, in that sense I have a dual responsibility, and yes I do want cricket to happen in Pakistan but it all depends on many issues - security, the ICC's views and the government's approval. The discussions are on and in a short time we will announce our decision," added Kamal.
