Pakistan officials Saturday reviewed security arrangements in this Gujarat city ahead of the fixing of venues for the upcoming India-Pakistan cricket series.

"We have looked at arrangements at the ground and elsewhere," said Zakir Khan, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB)'s general manager (operations).

He, along with Lahore Senior Superintendent of Police Sohail Khan, held an hour-long meeting with Gujarat Cricket Association (GCA) officials and the state's senior police authorities.

The Pakistani team was here to inspect facilities and security arrangements, Khan said.

He, however, refused to comment on the team's views on security in the city. Replying to a question whether any match in Ahmedabad entailed heightened security concerns, he said: "I can't comment.

"We will present our report to the PCB very soon," he said.

He clarified that he and his colleague were misquoted in media reports that indicated they were satisfied with arrangements at Bangalore, Chennai and Mohali.

"Our brief is to inspect arrangements and present a report to the PCB," he said.

GCA chief Narahari Amin, however, said the Pakistani officials were satisfied with security arrangements at Sardar Patel Gujarat stadium at Motera on the outskirts of Ahmedabad.

"We briefed them about the security arrangements all along the Pakistan team's (proposed) itinerary, from the airport to the hotel to the stadium and inside the venue.

"They are very satisfied. I am confident that the city will host the match," Amin said.

He also described the Pakistani's team visit as part of a routine followed by all international cricket bodies and said the communal violence in Gujarat in 2002 was not a factor in the review.

"Gandhinagar's superintendent of police, inspector general and other senior police officials were present at the meeting and they assured the Pakistan officials of security. The state government too has been very supportive," Amin said.

The two Pakistani officials left for New Delhi. They will return to Pakistan by Jan 31 after visiting Kanpur, officials said.
