Union considers chartered flight to get Australia players home from IPL
A chartered flight to bring back Australian cricketers after the IPL in India is under consideration, the country’s players union said on Wednesday even as sports minister Richard Colbeck made it clear that such a move has not yet been cleared by the government Down Under.
Australian Cricketers’ Association (ACA) chief Todd Greenberg said Cricket Australia will talk to the IPL franchise owners on this arrangement but conceded that it will not be a simple thing.
“That’s one of the conversations we’re having with Cricket Australia at the moment about whether or not that’s something that’s available to us,” Greenberg said on 2GB radio as quoted by ‘Sydney Morning Herald’.
