The cricket fraternity may have questioned the logic behind the harsh sacking of four players but Cricket Australia Board today backed its team management on the suspension issue.
Cricket Australia's Board today held a teleconference with CA management to take a briefing following yesterday's events in Mohali and felt that they have done the right thing.
"We had a discussion so we could be fully updated on the issues surrounding this event and allow board members to ask questions of the management. The board is completely supportive of the actions taken by team management," CA Chairman Wally Edwards said in a statement.
