The Shiv Sena has called off its proposed agitation against Australian cricketers playing in the upcoming IPL matches. In a statement, Sena leader Bal Thackeray on Tuesday said that let the Australian players come and play in Mumbai. Shiv Sena has taken the decision just hours after Chief Minister Ashok Chavan said that the government will provide security to the Australian players during the IPL. Earlier, Mr Thackeray had threatened to oppose Australian cricketers in the IPL in view of the attacks on Indians in Australia. <br/>
