Kolkata April 22 (IANS) The fact that India and Pakistan do not have a Players Association is a cause of worry for the International Cricket Council (ICC) and was discussed during the first day of the five-day meeting that got underway at a city hotel on Sunday.
"India and Pakistan do not have a proper players association which is recognised. It is already mentioned in the Lodha Commission I believe and it is definitely a big concern " an official of the Federation of International Cricketers Associations (FICA) said.
One of the key reforms of the Lodha committee is forming a Cricket Players Association (CPA).
The Committee of Administrators (CoA) had decided to set up a Working Group comprising cricket legend Kapil Dev former India batsman Anshuman Gaekwad wicket-keeper Bharat Reddy and ex-India women s team captain Shanta Rangaswamy to form a Cricket Players Association.
