Back in Australia, the ongoing pay dispute between Cricket Australia (CA) and the players have worsened with CA sending a formal letter to warring players officially informing them they will be unemployed if a deal is not reached this week in their protracted pay dispute.

Australia's top cricketers face unemployment within days, with a bitter pay dispute "extremely" unlikely to be resolved by a deadline on Friday as per players' union boss Greg Dyer, Australia skipper Steve Smith is enjoying his break in New York as he tried his hand at baseball.
