Report: Sabat Arif. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has taken an unusual step to promote cricket by granting Emirati citizenship to 5 players for the first time.
All these players are currently in the national team of the UAE and it is expected that this move will strengthen the national team of the UAE.
Among the players who became new UAE nationals are Khazeema Tanveer, Ajay Kumar, Akshdeep Nath, Harpreet Bhatia and Adeeb Usmani.
It is worth remembering that this is the first time that they are directly included in the national team by granting citizenship.
