Islamabad: The England cricket team's current tour of Pakistan is coming under controversy for some reason or the other. A day before the second Test match in Multan, gunshots were heard there on Thursday (December 8). According to media reports, the distance of the England team hotel from where the incident took place in Multan is just one kilometer. Let us know that the England team is on a tour of Pakistan after a long gap of 17 years.
According to a report, the firing took place between two groups and the Pakistani police have made four arrests in this case. The sound of firing was heard before the England team left the hotel to practice.

However, this shooting has once again brought back sad memories of the year 2009. Let us know that on March 3, 2009, there was a terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team in Pakistan.

Players like then-captain Mahela Jayawardene, Kumar Sangakkara, Ajantha Mendis, Thilan Samaraweera, and Chaminda Vaas were injured in the attack. At the same time, 8 people, including 6 Soldiers of Pakistan Police, lost their lives in this attack.
