The WICB should countersue the BCCI for postponing the future tours.

If the WICB offered a replacement side, and the BCCI refused, unless there is something in the contract forbidding this, then I can't see how the BCCI can press for anything.
India’s board is suing the West Indian board for $42m – and, according to my learned friends, the West Indies have not got a legal leg to stand on.

Not sure how a player can be forced to play inside conditions that they dont agree with, and be punished for not accepting this? What is cricket becoming, a dictatorship?

I think there has to be some sort of consequence for the players for their actions.

Players dont pick themselves, so they always have to answer for their behaviour
