A Cricket Australia person said that they want to see international cricket returning to Pakistan as the country has a huge passion for it but the security and the safety of their players and staff is their key priority and they would not compromise with that. Aaron Finch and Usman Khawaja are ready for the tour to Pakistan if Cricket Australia allows them.

The Pakistan born Australain Cricketer Usman Khawaja said, “Obviously, whatever Cricket Australia tells us, that’ll be the big thing. We’ll leave it to the administrators. They’re pretty good at taking care of us and making sure everything’s safe.”

Aaron Finch said,“It would be great to get cricket back in Pakistan. The passion their fans have got and just the amount of fans … (there are) some pretty empty stadiums in the UAE. Anytime there’s cricket back in Pakistan, they’re swinging from the rafters to get a seat.”
