The Australian Cricketers' Association (ACA) is an organisation that represents the professional first-class cricketers of Australia, both past and present.[1] It is not a formally registered Trade Union, but an Incorporated Association.

Current administration

Shane Watson is the current president of the ACA. The chair is Greg Dyer, and the remaining members of the Board of Directors are Alyssa Healy, Clea Smith, Kristen Beams, Aaron Finch, Moises Henriques, Lisa Sthalekar, Janet Torney and Pat Cummins.[2]

History

In 2022, ACA expressed their dis-pleasure towards Cricket Australia (CA) due to the understanding or deal inbetween Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and CA by which the former will pay 10 % form the Australian players IPL salary to CA. Paul Marsh, chief executive of ACA said that our players will not sing CA, IPL contracts to oppose this decision.[3]
