India's cricket board has played down a confrontation with the world governing body over fixture scheduling. But secretary Niranjan Shah warned moves to add new events, like a Twenty20 World Cup, would be resisted.
"We've not cancelled any committed tour which is there in the future tours programme," said Shah.
"Our basic complaint is if England and Australia can plan regular home series every year, why should we not plan? India is a major force."
The Board of Control for Cricket in India, under new president Sharad Pawar, has moved to set up more regular fixtures with leading sides Australia and India.
The new regime is keen to play regularly during India's peak season in October and November, and is close to finalising plans for annual visits by Australia between 2007 and 2009.
But threats to boycott the biennial ICC Champions Trophy after this season were met with a warning from the International Cricket Council.
India joined the other Test-playing nations in agreeing the future tours programme in 2004, including regular Test and one-day series, the World Cup and the Champions Trophy.
Board officials will raise their objections when they met ICC chief executive Malcolm Speed in Dubai on Friday to finalise details for the Champions Trophy, to be held in India in October.
"We don't mind honouring ICC decisions, but they can't go on adding tournaments and taking away from our pie," Shah added.
"Eighty percent of the money comes from India."
