CA has given indications that they are open to the idea of shifting matches on the International Cricket Council's FTP, which has been outlined until 2012.

"James Sutherland (CA CEO) is willing to participate in discussion and debate about creating a window in the Future Tours Program so players can play in the IPL, as long as it is a window that recognises the genuine interests of the FTP and all 10 ICC nations," CA spokesman Peter Young said.

CA, however, remains embroiled in a dispute with the IPL over players' contractual obligations.

"We are still of the view that (the contract disagreement) is capable of resolution. It's going to be tough, but we believe we can get through," Young was quoted as saying in 'Sydney Morning Herald'.
