Mumbai DEC 1: The outstanding demand of players to increase their match fees and the schedule of the matches has been resolved.Indian Players Kohli and Dhoni along with coach Ravi Shastri have meet CoA chief Vinod Rai, Diana Edulji, and BCCI CEO Rahul Johri.

Speaking to media after discussions Vinod Rai has told that "We had extensive discussions with players on issues that pertain to them directly, which means the number of matches they have to play, the Future Tours Program (FTP) and compensation package etc"

He added that "All the inputs they have to give us were taken and we are going to factor those in. The FTP, we bounced it off them. Presentations have been made and they are in agreement with the FTP so that they get enough rest. Number of days, I can't tell you as we have not yet worked it out".



"The principles on which compensation package has to be structured, that has been agreed to. It's only a question of numbers now. We will now match the revenue with compensation that each player receives," the former CAG chief said.
