History
editIn 2022, ACA expressed their displeasure towards Cricket Australia (CA) due to the understanding or deal between Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and CA by which the former will pay 10% from the Australian players' IPL salary to CA. Paul Marsh, chief executive of ACA said that their players would oppose this decision by not signing CA, IPL contracts.[3]
