Attack on Srilankan team in Lahore

The attacks on Srilankan Cricket team in lahore was the black day of cricket.It would be difficult for pakistan for next at least two years to host any cricket. This also has put a question mark over hosting of worldcup jointly by india, Pakistan and Srilanka .It's high time Pakistan should realise that terrorist had virtually taken over the reins of pakistan and there is nothing which is in order.....The terrorist which they have nurtured for years are now a grown up thorn and pain in their own ass.
