I may be wrong, but as a Kolpak player , I think you are barred from playing from your country for a period of time normally a minimum of three years, that was my understanding, but I am sure someone will tell me /you different
 
To be fair Tahir was one of the only positives for South Africa and that is who Harmer would have been competing with

In 2017 Kyle Abbott (Hampshire) signed a Kolpak deal which has permanently ended his Proteas career.

Interesting Simon Harmer article/interview here:-

Great win for us and another home game this weekend.Somerset are up at Yorkshire so let's hope we win and Yorkshire can get a result
 
Just seen James Foster now T20 coach for Glamorgan

Good luck James, shame not a role at ECG, with our T20 record its could not have been that hard to find you a place in back room set up

The only thing I can think of is that it can be hard switching into coaching when you were a team-mate of those he was coaching. So hopefully a move to Glamorgan to learn the art of coaching and to return to lead Essex in a few years down the line....

It wasn’t a friendly parting of ways by all accounts which is a shame.
 
I see Amir is back at Chelmsford. Have we actually got a decent overseas batter coming in or we going to have to rely on Chopra in the 20/20?!
