England's Professional Cricketers' Association (PCA) backed the Federation of International Cricketers' Associations' (FICA) concern over security measures in Pakistan for the Champions Trophy.

Sean Morris, the PCA chief executive, agreed with FICA chief Tim May's assessment that "absolutely nothing had changed in the three months since Australia postponed their Pakistan tour after safety concerns. "We will await the ECB response with interest and once we have it the PCA will advise the players on our position and then take the players' views back to the ECB," Morris told the Australian.

However the ICC declared itself happy with the Pakistan board's security arrangements for the tournament scheduled in September. The ICC's executive board will be meeting in Dubai later this month and Richardson said the Full Member countries will discuss the security situation in Pakistan.
