The Sri Lankan cricket board said national players were briefed on security arrangements.

COLOMBO - Ten Sri Lankan players, including T20 skipper Lasith Malinga and ODI captain Dimuth Karunaratne, pulled out of an upcoming tour of Pakistan citing security concerns, officials said Monday.

The Sri Lankan cricket board said national players were briefed on security arrangements for the six-match limited over series, and given the freedom to decide if they wanted to travel. The other eight who opted out were Thisara Perera, Angelo Mathews, Niroshan Dickwella, Kusal Perera, Dhananjaya de Silva, Akila Dananjaya, Suranga Lakmal and Dinesh Chandimal.

The tour has been seen as another step towards reviving international cricket in Pakistan after years of isolation. Shortly before the announcement, batsman Danushka Gunathilaka told reporters that "about 70 percent of players agree while 30 percent are not happy".This will be Sri Lanka’s second tour of Pakistan since the 2009 attack.
