    Shoaib Bashir Flies Back To UK To Resolve Visa Issues

    By IANS News January 24, 2024 • 00:08 AM View: 774
    Prime Minister Rishi Sunak: England's uncapped spinner Shoaib Bashir has returned to the UK in order to sort out the visa delay preventing him from joining the national squad for the upcoming Test series in India.

    The 20-year-old, of Pakistani descent, was initially left behind in Abu Dhabi while the rest of the team traveled to India on Sunday, awaiting resolution to the bureaucratic hurdle.

    Despite being a surprise inclusion in the England Test squad after only six first-class matches, Bashir's journey to India has hit a snag due to the yet-to-be-issued visa. The Somerset off-spinner is now expected to miss the first Test in Hyderabad, scheduled to commence on Thursday.
