Kolpak rule is free trade agreement between EU countries and some group of countries. Under this rule, county clubs can sign any of the player from these countries and can play him under home-player category.

As brexit is happening in the near future, county cricket fears that they will be out of EU and cannot sign players under this rule. anduke intha penta ayyindhi ipudu.

English county teams are allowed to have 1 international player that can represent the county team in tests/one-day matches

c below for more details

What is the Kolpak rule?

Citizens of EU countries are allowed to work in any other EU country. But the Kolpak rule means that citizens of countries that are part of European Union Association Agreements, which are free trade treaties between the EU and other countries, also have the same right.

Why is it called that? 

The rule was made when Maros Kolpak, a Slovak handball player, appealed to the European Court of Justice that he should not be considered a non-EU player in the German handball league as he was a resident of Germany and a citizen of a country that had an Association Agreement with the EU. Kolpak had lost his contract with his German club as they already had two non-EU players. The court ruled in his favour.

How does it impact cricket? 

Players from countries with such deals with the EU can play cricket in any EU country without being considered an overseas player. This means they can sign contracts with English county sides without having to be fielded as overseas players.

So how do South Africans qualify?

South Africa is part of a deal called the Cotonou Agreement with the EU. Zimbabwe and several Caribbean nations are also signatories, so their players are eligible for Kolpak deals too.

Still SA is a world class team. SA has that quota for all its sports teams, and they do much better than 'merit' based India.
