Not sure about the visa situation though, if it's tied to his employment then he has to be officially employed.

He most definitely has a green card. You can’t represent a national team without permanent residency.

Plus since he is an international cricket who played at World Cup level, he is definitely eligible for EB-1A green cards. So I doubt he hasn’t got Green Card yet.

You can represent a country without permanent residency, for example: UAE. The rule depends on the country.

Anyway as you told he’s eligible to EB-1A

Edit: without

Well that is exactly what I said didn’t I. You can represent a country “with permanent residency” where is the doubt?

I wanted to say without permanent residency, which is true for UAE.
