England supporters' group Barmy Army has warned there is "too much risk" in fans travelling to Bangladesh for the team's tour in October.
It says there is "insufficient interest" to merit an organised tour, but will reconsider if fans are given the same security measures as players.
The tour was only given the go-ahead following a security review by the England and Wales Cricket Board.
ECB director of cricket Andrew Strauss says some players may choose not to go.
Moeen Ali, Chris Jordan and Liam Dawson have said they will travel if selected.

Drunk? Whatever do you mean
This is actually a shame as the Barmy Army always make for a cracking atmosphere.

Perhaps that is the real reason there is no tour being organised

Can't blame them for not going though. Safety first. Plus, there is also the upcoming tour of India to factor in with prices starting at around £2500.

Haha they might not have too much fun without alcohol. But I do agree that they need to keep people safe and that should be the main goal.

Bangladesh made fresh assurances on Friday that England's cricketers would be accorded top-level security on their controversial upcoming tour amid growing doubts over whether ODI skipper Eoin Morgan will travel.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
