ICC's Chief Executive Committee (CEC)stated that it had
limited powers to take a decision over safety issues as to whether tours should take place or not. It reiterated that the
ICC's role in
bilateral series was "
limited to considering the safety and security of the match officials after a tour had been confirmed and a security plan produced." The decision as to whether a particular tour should take place or not was, the CEC stated, "one for the participating countries."
The board/player associations of each country can use this as ammunition to deter the tour. But
ICC will not and can not interfere.
