The final ODI of the ongoing Pak-SA Series has been shifted from Karachi to Lahore following security issues. Last week there was a twin blast in Karachi which killed more than hundreds of people during the homecoming of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.
The South Africans almost pulled off from their ongoing tour following the civil and political unrest in Pakistan. However they have been given foolproof security throughout their stay. The first Test of the tour which the visitors had won was played at Karachi without any incidents. The bombings in Karachi on the 18th would have forced many touring teams to withdraw from the tour but the Proteas decided against that decision this time round. This is not the first time that the South Africans have faced such a security problem. Last year they had pulled off from a Triangular Tournament in Sri Lanka because of a bomb blast from the LTTE.
The final ODI of the five-match series is going to be held at the Gaddafi Stadium which has already hosted the first two ODIs along with the 2nd Test!
