Don146;t shift Champions Trophy, postpone it: BCCI

Sri Lanka were named alternative hosts for the event but the island nation8217;s own security issues led to South Africa being asked to be on the stand-by. India8217;s move came as it emerged that a key component of Pakistan8217;s past security plans would not feature for the Champions Trophy.

An unnamed Australian player described the development as 8220;worrying8221; as roads between team hotels and grounds perhaps would not be cleared of all traffic as had been expected. CA will review the findings of Dickason8217;s report before deciding whether to attend the Champions Trophy. But if it gives the nod, several leading players will consider boycotting the tournament.
