The match between India and Pakistan is scheduled to be held on 9 June 2024 at Nassau County Stadium in New York. But before that, the terrorist organization ISIS has asked its attackers to carry out a 'lone wolf' attack in this match. Lone wolf attack means that only one person will attack, making it difficult to catch him. Currently, security has been increased in New York and especially Nassau County. But there have been heartbreaking incidents in the cricket world before.
Sri Lankan team attacked in Pakistan
This incident is from the year 2009 when the Sri Lankan team was on a tour of Pakistan. On March 3, 2009, the Sri Lankan team left for Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium by bus. But before reaching the ground, 12 gunmen started firing indiscriminately and also exploded a grenade. 6 Pakistani police personnel and 2 civilians were killed in this attack. Six players of the Sri Lankan team were seriously injured, including Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene. After this incident, the Test series was canceled.
New Zealand canceled the tour because of the suicide bomber
In 2002, the New Zealand team was on a tour of Pakistan. Pakistan won the first match of the 3-match ODI series, while in the first Test match, Pakistan won by an innings and 324 runs. The second Test match was to be played in Karachi. A bus was parked outside the hotel where the New Zealand team was staying to take the team to the ground. But the bus was destroyed by a sudden explosion by a suicide bomber. At that time, New Zealand immediately cancelled the tour. A total of 12 people lost their lives and 34 people were injured in this attack.
Bangladesh team has also come under target
In 2019, the Bangladesh team toured New Zealand. The host team won the 3-match ODI series, while Bangladesh lost the first two matches of the 3-match Test series. The third match was to be played in Christchurch. Before this, the Bangladesh team was about to offer prayers at the Al Noor mosque in Christchurch. Then the news came that two mosques in Christchurch had been attacked. A woman warned the Bangladeshi team that bullets were being fired inside the mosque. Due to this, the players of the team saved themselves by hiding under the bus.
