A British newspaper is claiming that Al Quida initially ordered the bombers to target the England and Australian cricket teams during the extremely high profile series, the Ashes, last year hosted in England. The bombers were told to get jobs as stewards at one of the venues and plant sarin gas in the changing rooms of the two teams. However, some of them were big cricket fans and therefore refused to go ahead with the plot and instead carried out the attack at much more dense places like the tube during rush hour.
