There are several Canadian players that I believe are registered for a draft for the US Open Cup. I don't know when the draft is.
Nitish Kumar ( who plays for the 'Clarion County Eagles')?
Nikhil Dutta
Hamza Tariq
Junaid Siddiqui
Arslan Khan
Harsh Thaker
Srimantha Wijeyeratne
also a few others that play club cricket in Canada
Also, several Ireland internationals (Paul Sterling!)
Also, one (or two - it might be the same person) guys named Imran Khan - no not THAT Imran Khan

It is good that players in our national pool are playing in the "off-season" and that guys like Kumar and Dutta are trying to make a living from cricket.

Apparently the draft is on Nov. 15. There are 10 teams and some players have been retained so there are a few spots remaining and 700 players have registered.

Nitish Kumar Clarion County Eagles
Junaid Siddiqui (vc) and Harsh Thaker Brampton Pacers (maybe a couple of other Canadians whose names I don't know.)
Saad Bin Zafar Cavaliers 22 Yards
Srimantha Wijeyeratne (c) Nikhil Dutta Rayyan Pathan Titans CC
Also, Corey Anderson who is slated to play for USA in the next couple of years.
Quite a few WI players and Scottish and Irish.
The tournament is from Dec.6-13.

Nitish Kumar and Harsh Thaker were in the runs and Thaker took some wickets too. No one else really did distinguished themselves.
