Australia vice-captain David Warner has suggested next winter's Ashes series may be in danger because of a pay dispute.
Warner spoke out amid plans to alter the contracts of national team players this summer and set aside existing, long-standing arrangements that they receive a share of the revenue generated by their employers Cricket Australia (CA).
A stand-off has developed between CA and the Australian Cricketers' Association, which represents the players and Warner accepts there could be serious consequences if no agreement is reached.
"If it gets to the extreme, they might not have a team for the Ashes," the hard-hitting opener told the Age newspaper in Melbourne.
"I really hope they can come to an agreement... we don't really want to see this panning out like that where we don't have a team, we don't have cricket in the Australian summer. It is up to CA to deal with the Australian Cricketers' Association. It's obviously in their hands."
Warner, enjoying a fine IPL with Sunrisers Hyderabad, will soon rejoin his international teammates for their Champions Trophy challenge in England. Beyond that global tournament, however, the future appears less certain &mdash; with a deadline looming for resolution to the dispute at the end of next month.
