Re Andy

This will not effect his qualifying period which, if i am correct, will be complete by the end of this summer.
Under previous ICC rules it would have, Hamilton was granted special dispensation for the '99 WC, it has been changed like this to help the associate nations.
In fact, the same qualifying rules apply to players of any nationality, eg Pieterson!
Just a small note as i'm not sure everyone knows this; Ireland play cricket as one nation ie The Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland together but I can assure you, the latter is very much part of the UK!!
