Australia's players yesterday boycotted this month's Australia 'A' tour to South Africa, escalating a bitter pay dispute which threatens to derail senior tours to Bangladesh and India as well as this year's home Ashes.
The Australia Cricketers' Association (ACA) said the players were unavailable to tour South Africa for the Australia 'A' team without an agreed pay deal or new Memorandum of Understanding, after their existing contracts with Cricket Australia expired on June 30 following months of increasingly acrimonious wrangling.
"It is with great frustration that with no progress towards resolving the current dispute, Australia 'A' players confirm they will not tour South Africa," ACA said in a statement. "This decision is made in support of more than 200 male and female players who are now unemployed."
