Former West Indies fast bowler Michael Holding launched a scathing attack on the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) over the cancellation of the men’s and women’s teams’ tour of Pakistan recently, saying that has it been an India tour, they would not have had the guts to tell the Indian cricket board they would not tour the country.

“Four days in Pakistan [was all they would have spent], I am absolutely sure they would not have done that to India,” Holding told Sky Sports on Wednesday. “What that signal sends to me is the same western arrogance. I will treat you how I feel like treating you—it doesn’t matter what you think, I will just do what I want,” added Holding.
