The umpires were in a second mini-bus behind the Sri Lankan team. I heard the Aussie (Steve Davis) interviewed on the radio this morning - and it sounded like a terrifying experience. Their driver was killed and he said they were stuck in the bus for quite a while with the (local Pakistani) TV umpire shot as well (but not killed). I reckon you'd try to get out of the country and never go back.
Geoff Lawson used to be the Pakistani coach and was pushing Oz to tour last year - he was also on the radio and he was shocked - he really never thought that this kind of attack would happen.
