A brief release
Following the news that the ICL are offering their New Zealand contractors early release from their contracts (possibly making them elligible for their national teams), the ICL are now suggesting that they expect them to return for their October tournament, presumably to be re-banned.
So they will only be available for a few months. Off season.
A quick squiz at the Future Tours Programme and scheduled tournaments shows that in the window when these players will be uncontracted they will be available for the ICC World Twenty20 (is that the 20-20 world cup again? already?) and a tour of Sri Lanka. Two fixtures. Then back to limbo.
