The only pity is that this was a government decision, rather than one made by the players or the controlling body (Cricket Australia). Whilst I agree with their decision, I don't think that any government should dictate terms, especially as it will be the players who suffer the inevitable ICC sanctions.
India apparently went ahead with their tour despite massive reservations by players and officials, purely because of the threat of "major" ICC sanctions if they refused. It will therefore be very interesting to see what the ICC does to Australia.
