Whether or not to opt out of series in Pakistan must be left to players to decide for themselves individually
No one can be blamed for not touring Pakistan, but there will be players with the nerve to accept the challenge. Once reluctant cricketers see that their country will be represented, with or without them, it could easily change their mind.

Taufel urges Aussies to tour Pakistan
MELBOURNE: Urging the Australian cricket team to stop worrying about its safety in Pakistan, world's leading umpire Simon Taufel, who also happens to be an Aussie, called on Ricky Ponting's men to fearlessly tour the "friendly" nation for next month's Champions Trophy.
Taufel said never once in his "half a dozen" tours to Pakistan, has he felt any threat to his life. The three-time ICC Umpire of the Year said he has always come across friendly and warm people in the country, widely perceived to be dangerous.
"If I'm selected to be an umpire, I will not hesitate to go," he asserted.
