The recent off-field action in Australian cricket has been fierce and frenzied. Three players lost to suspension, followed by the resignation of a coach, a CEO and a Board member, then the pace really quickened with the reluctant departure of the Chairman and then close on his heels another Board member in respected former player and captain Mark Taylor. To cap off the chaos, two executives were then sacked.

Advantage India
The greatest beneficiary of this off-field upheaval is the Indian touring party which now has their best ever chance of beating a rattled Australia at home in a Test series.
