Islamabad  - The terrorist attack on Sri Lanka's cricket team in Pakistan's eastern city of Lahore has left little possibility for an international event of cricket, or any other sports, for the foreseeable future, analysts agreed Wednesday.

"It's a major blow to Pakistan. Who would like to play in the shower of bullets and bombs?" asked retired army general Talat Masood.

"I don't think any international player would step in the country unless and until the country manages to eradicate extremism and terrorism from its soil," he added.

Zardari told Bogollagama that the terrorists would be caught and dealt "with iron hands".
