The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Sunday decided to relocate the 2009 Champions Trophy from Pakistan due to lingering security fears in the troubled nation.
Following a meeting of the ICC board, chief executive Haroon Lorgat said the “safety and security environment” in Pakistan had forced a relocation of the eight-nation event.

ICC said that they might shift Champions Trophy to Sri Lanka or may be South Africa...
