International players' chiefs have warned the world's governing body to review its structure following votes of no confidence by the world's best cricketers.

Federation of International Cricketers' Associations chief executive Tim May believes there is an urgency to reform due to the establishment of 20-over leagues in India.

There was a groundswell of opinion against the International Cricket Council last year when FICA canvassed their members in the aftermath of the World Cup.

And the role of the ICC is part of a current survey, the results of which will be reviewed at FICA's annual general meeting in Austin, Texas on May 26.

"The landscape now that cricket presides in has competitors, in the IPL and ICL," May said.

"Players are making their own choices and we are seeing a trend of them deciding what they want to be associated with developing.

"There are various considerations players have to take into account.

"Do they want to play international cricket, which entails less money, sacrifice for those with families and strain on the body from heavy scheduling or do they want to play IPL?

"Players might have had a gutful of poor governance.

"It increases the urgency for ICC and other boards to lift their game and achieve the levels of other sports' administration."

Players around the world, who are wielding power like never before, have clearly become disillusioned with the ICC's handling of several major issues over the past 18 months.

"The views of FICA on ICC's governance have been well documented," said May. "In a FICA poll of players last year, 56% expressed a lack of confidence in ICC to govern the game.

"We subsequently stated our concern at the ICC's governance structure and suggested a review of that structure to see if it was the best that it could be.

"Players have currently been surveyed again on a raft of issues.

"Our position on matters is determined by the mood of our membership - we represent them, not the other way around."

Under the sport's current revolution, England players are one group who want more of a say in their futures or at least ex-cricketers to represent their views.
