Ahead of Friday’s first ODI in Rawalpindi, players and support staff were told to remain in their hotel rooms, while spectators were not permitted to enter the venue.

“Following an escalation in the New Zealand Government threat levels for Pakistan, and advice from NZC security advisors on the ground, it has been decided the Black Caps will not continue with the tour,” the statement read.“NZC will not comment on the details of the security threat nor the updated arrangements for the departing squad.”

“The security officials with the NZ team have been satisfied with security arrangements made by the Govt of Pakistan throughout their stay here.
