Cricket Australia's First Nation's Advisory Committee which is co-chaired by CA board member and former worldwide Mel Jones, made a series of recommendations which included not making reference to 'Australia Day'.
Cricket Australia Diversity and Inclusion manager Adam Cassidy said the aim is to draw a balance between supporting Indigenous communities without making drastic moves like stopping cricket on January 26.
