England great says rescheduling would be "monstrous"
Geoffrey Boycott has questioned the England and Wales Cricket Board's "moral judgement" in trying to reschedule the tour of India.
ECB officials are currently in talks with their Indian counterparts over the tour, which has been halted following the terrorist attacks that took place in and around England's base in Mumbai.
But despite suggestions a 20-man commando force could be employed to protect the players, the former England batsman has slammed the notion of a return to India in the current climate.
"Given what has just happened in India, it is monstrous for the ECB even to be thinking about sending the team back out again," Boycott wrote in the Daily Telegraph.
"It's all very well to say 'We mustn't let the terrorists win', but what about the grieving families who have lost loved ones.
"Sport is supposed to be enjoyable, entertaining and essentially fun. But I don't know how any of that can be possible when India is burying more than 200 victims of terror.
"In fact, the ECB are showing a lack of moral judgment by pressing ahead with all these meetings and security inspections. The whole thing is just too raw.
"People have been trying to draw parallels between this disaster and the London bombings of July 2005, and pointing out that the Ashes series carried on regardless. The two situations are completely different."
