Players have no right to complain about tight schedule: ICC
New Delhi: The ICC today hit out at players complaining about a tight international calendar and blamed them instead for jumping on lucrative offers in their off season.

I think the heavy international schedule should be confronted with a nice rotation policy coupled with good opportunities to the youngsters.

Spot on.

It's mainly the Aussies who are complaining. They should ask themselves why on earth would they play a "full" side against Bangladesh?? THey should of brought all the main players back home from South Africa for a rest, and sent over some of our Australia A team or some complete newbies.

Thats a silly thing to say after what the Bangalis did in the first match. Australia would've lost for sure if the ACB sent their A team instead.

I didnt say the whole team, i said most. Australia say they are 'fatigued' so why not send some fresh young guns??? Its a perfect opportunity. I dont see how it's silly.

I think the ICC arent to be blamed for too many games in a calendar year,and definately not for Australia(as some of the subcontinent teams play far more games).But I personally would question the gap between games.There is far to small a gap between games,especially test matches and far too big a gap between series at times(nearly 5 months in case of Australia).Maybe they could put all the games similar to a season mode(like they do with clubs) and keep an offseason period.That way there should be a reasonable time gap between matches as well.

Current schedule of Champions trophy won't please the Australians a lot.
