England captain is worried about his personal security to participate in upcoming IPL, after the deadly attack on sri lanka team in pakistan, as this was first ever attack on international cricketers.
At this point of time i have decided not to take part, after consulting as many people as i can and then take a final decision he quoted, after the final test against west indies i speak to banglore royal challenger,Ecb, security advisors.
After speaking to them i will be geting a clear view to decide upon as of now my thoughts are not clear,after the attack on Mumbai it has been tuff for cricters to think of security.
In India at this point of junction i hope there will be no issue in regard with security. If every player starts to pull out from IPL then it will be a disaster for cricket around the world.
I was shocked when i heard there was an attack on lankan team at pakistan,i don't think anyone at present will be thinking to tour pakistan.
Royal challengers will be hoping to make a good comeback in this season of IPL, as they brought england captain at huge price of USD 1.55 million, which is the highest bid paid to a player in IPL till now.
