I'm not sure about that. The Australian Men's* cricket team is representing Cricket Australia as an organisation. CA clearly have a right to be involved, in fact it's pretty well impossible for them not to be - the ICC are not going to tell one of it's members who they should include in their side, only those they must exclude for certain periods. If they want to hold their teams to higher standards of integrity than other boards have previously done and therefore declare certain players ineligible for selection, that is their choice.
* - I happened to be on the Aussie Board's website at one point during all this, and was struck that the live scorecards gave the sides as South Africa Men vs Australia Men rather than South Africa vs Australia. Kudos to them on that one.
