England spinners Adil Rashid and Rehan Ahmed are reportedly facing visa delays ahead of the T20 World Cup in India, starting February 7.
The issue has prevented the duo from travelling with the rest of the squad for warm-up matches against Sri Lanka. According to reports, the ECB remains confident the visas will be cleared in time, though uncertainty persists, prompting the board to seek UK government assistance. England begin their campaign against Nepal on February 8 in Navi Mumbai.
The team will tour Sri Lanka from January 22 as part of their build-up to the tournament.
