Pakistan Cricket Board is not able to arrange security during Team India's tour to Pakistan. When former Indian cricket team opener S Srikkanth went on a Pakistan tour with Team India in 1989-90, a person associated with a religious organization attacked Srikkanth. A Pakistan team supporter tore Srikkanth's jersey. Former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has mentioned this incident in his book.

Former Indian team captain Mohammad Azharuddin was attacked with an iron object during the 1989-90 tour of Pakistan. Mohammad Azharuddin was attacked in the same match in which Srikkanth was attacked. This was also revealed by former Indian cricket team cricketer and then manager Chandu Borde. However, Mohammad Azharuddin was fortunate that he did not suffer any serious injury.

Sachin Tendulkar and these four players were attacked

The Indian team that went to Pakistan in 1997 was attacked by throwing stones. At that time, the captain of the Indian team was Sachin Tendulkar. During the ODI series on the tour, the people of Pakistan attacked the Indian players with stones. These players included Sourav Ganguly, Debashish Mohanty, Abey Kuruvilla and Nilesh Kulkarni. After the attack on Mohanty, Sachin Tendulkar refused to enter the field due to security reasons.
