Australia Test skipper Pat Cummins’s statements regarding Peshawar attack
Australia Test skipper Pat Cummins had said that he felt incredibly safe upon his arrival in the Asian nation and appreciated the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for their arrangements for the Australian team.
“I feel incredibly safe and we’ve been really well looked after by the Pakistan Cricket Board. There’s been lots of security upon arrival. We were straight off the plane and straight to the hotel,” Cummins said on the Australian team’s arrival to Pakistan on February 27.
“We’ve got a pretty good set-up and we’ll be confined to the hotel except for games and training. We’ve traveled to places like India where you don’t leave the hotel too much so we are used to it. It’s comforting and we’re really lucky to be surrounded by so many professionals,” he added.
