There are very few teams in the cricket world, which like to go to Pakistan and play cricket. Team India last toured Pakistan in 2008. In 2009, there was a terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team bus inside Pakistan, after which no team visited Pakistan for many years. Now in the beginning of 2026, the Australian team has reached Pakistan tour for T20 series.
A three-match T20 series is to be played between Pakistan and Australia from January 29 to February 1. Kangaroo team has reached Pakistan for this series. The video of Australia team reaching Pakistan is becoming increasingly viral on social media. Seeing this video, people were reminded of the terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team bus.

People’s horrifying reactions go viral
In the comment section of the video, a user wrote, “Stay away from Pakistan, dear Australia.” While another user shared the picture of the terrorist attack on a Sri Lankan bus and asked the question, “A house for guests?” Similarly, people linked the attack on the Sri Lankan team and warned the Kangaroo team. People were also seen making fun of the team in the comments. One user described the team bus as a school bus.
Be safe guys.

Story of terrorist attack on Sri Lankan bus
In 2009, a two-match Test series was being played between Sri Lanka and Pakistan on Pakistani soil. There was a terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team bus during the second Test of the ongoing series in Lahore. The visiting team was going from the hotel to Gaddafi Stadium for the third day of the match. Then many masked terrorists attacked the team.
Many Sri Lankan players were injured in the attack. Names like Mahela Jayawardene, Kumar Sangakkara, Ajantha Mendis and Chaminda Vaas were included in the list of injured players. It was fortunate that the Sri Lankan player did not die. In the same attack, 8 people including 6 personnel of Pakistan Police lost their lives.
