Hall and van der Wath will now join up with Northants, while Kemp will turn out for Kent.

The trio had initially been refused registration by the England & Wales Cricket Board as they had competed in the unauthorised Indian Cricket League.

However following an appeal, all three have been granted permission to take up contracts with county sides.

"We are delighted that both Andrew and Johan are now available for us for 2008," read a statement from Northants.

"This strengthens our playing squad and enables us to push for honours in all competitions.

"We are looking forward to having both players with us as soon as possible."
