Australian Player Threatened To Kill If He Plays Just Before 1st Test In Pakistan

By: Sanjeev Dandekar

The Australian cricket team will play cricket on a tour of Pakistan after almost two and a half decades. Three Tests, one-day and later T20 series, will be played from March 4. However, the wife of an Australian cricketer has been threatened on social media by a stranger just before the Pakistan tour.

His wife has revealed that Australian cricketer Ashton Agar has received death threats. However, a spokesman for the Australian team said that the threat was made from a fake Instagram account and that the threat should not be taken lightly.

Madeleine Agar, the partner of Australia’s all-rounder Ashton Agar, has been threatened in social media messages. A stranger has threatened Madeleine that it will not be good for him if Ashton Agar visits Pakistan. The threat has been reported to the Pakistan Cricket Board and Cricket Australia. The Pakistan and Australia Cricket Boards have launched an investigation into the threat.

Ashton Agar’s partner Madeleine has sent threatening messages to the Australian newspaper Sydney Morning Herald and The Age, which she received on social media.

Boards Believe In Security Measures

However, despite threats from his wife, Ashton Agar is still looking forward to touring Pakistan. He will also participate in a training session in Rawalpindi before the first Test starts on Friday, March 4.

Boards Believe In Security Measures

Amid this speculation, the Australian Cricket Board acknowledged the integrity of the news. The Pakistan Cricket Board and its security agencies are also looking into the matter. However, there is no need to question the security situation.

A spokesman for the Australian board said: “There are security measures in place in the media to deal with such incidents. There were no immediate reports of injuries or severe damage. There will be no further comment on this.”

Agar is now in Islamabad with the Australian team. He also shared pictures of his arrival in Pakistan in the media. What message was sent to Madeleine, Agar’s wife?

A screenshot of the message, which was leaked to the media, reads: “Your husband Ashton Agar is being warned. If he visits Pakistan, he will not be able to return alive. When you come to Pakistan, your children will lose their father.”

After the terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team in 2009, only 6 Test matches could be played in Pakistan. This is Australia’s first tour of Pakistan since 1998, and this time it’s critical for the Pakistan Cricket Board.

Pakistan will be cautious in dealing with such threats. Australia’s Test captain Pat Cummins, who set foot in Pakistan, said they were “completely satisfied” with the security arrangements.
