Reports coming out of Kenya have confirmed that the ICC have appointed Darrell Hair to stand in both the forthcoming Tri Series and World Cricket League.

The International career of Hair looked to have come to an end after the controversial England versus Pakistan Test match ended in farce. After an inquiry, Percy Sonn, the ICC President stated that the organisation had lost confidence in Hair, and that he wouldn't be standing in any future internationals.

Hair stood as umpire in both Ireland and Scotland's first One Day Internationals in 2006, versus England and Pakistan respectively, and is a hugely experienced official, having stood in 76 Test matches, and 124 ODI's.

The ICC is due to make a formal statement on the appointment on Sunday.
