After this, after consulting the security officials deployed for the match and the New Zealand government, the board decided to cancel the entire series and asked the Pakistan Cricket Board to make arrangements to leave Pakistan as soon as possible. Regarding this matter, NZC Chief Executive Officer David White said at that time – The safety of the players is paramount, and after the increase in the threat level, we felt this was the only responsible step of action.
