Posted December 18th, 2014, 02:10 PM IST

Abu Dhabi: Shattered by the attack on school in Pehswar which killed more than 130 innocent kids and handful of staff members, Pakistan opener Ahmed Shehzad broke down as New Zealand and Pakistan teams observed two minute silence before the fourth ODI of the 5-match series on Wednesday.
The world is still in mourning after the Taliban gunmen opened fire in the army school in Peshwar on Tuesday. While there were requests from some of the Pakistan team members to postpone the game, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said they could not do so.
The press release from PCB said, "We tried our best to postpone the 4th ODI but were constrained by the Broadcasters commitment as well as for cricketing reasons advised by the New Zealand management"
The PCB though said the match gate money would go to the families of the dead and for the rebuilding of the school.
