Lahore (ABC Live): After the gunmen opened fire on the Sri Lankan team bus injuring six players in their way to Gaddafi Stadium, Pakistan Government has sent Pakistani air force helicopter in Gaddafi Stadium to evacuated members of the Sri Lankan team.

Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapakse has condemned the terrorists’ attacks and termed this act a "cowardly terrorist attack" and ordered the players' immediate evacuation.

It is to mention after 26/11, the Mumbai attacks, India had canceled its cricket team tour to Pakistan and Pakistan had invited Sri Lanka to tour instead of India.

As earlier Sri Lanka has no plan tour to Pakistan, this has given question mark over Sri Lankan government decision to allow its cricket team to that nation where authority of its government is not yet clear?
