The New Zealand Cricket Board’s (NZC) security contingent’s report will be a deciding factor on whether the Kiwis will tour Pakistan in a future bilateral series.

According to sources, the NZC has procured the services of security expert Rig Dickson, who will analyse the preparations in Karachi, Lahore and Rawalpindi during his visit.
