 | | There is also a news coming out of ICC sources at Lord’s and given wide coverage by the English dailies of UAE regarding revamping of players qualification rules after the ICC trophy 2001, which is to be held in Toronto, Canada, from June 27 - July 15, 2001. |
 | | ICC has discriminated against the UAE cricketers by evolving qualification rules, directly affecting them and deprived them of their due status and recognition in the cricketing world. |
 | | If the ICC would not have changed these qualification rules targeted only against UAE players after the laurels it won in 1994 and 1996, by now, the UAE, like Bangladesh would have become a full member of ICC or at least would have acquired the one-day playing status like Kenya. |
