England remain hopeful that Saqib Mahmood will join their white-ball tour of India on time after delays with his visa forced him to miss a pre-series trip to Abu Dhabi.
Mahmood has yet to receive the required approval from the Indian authorities, meaning he has been unable to join fellow seamers Jofra Archer, Mark Wood, Gus Atkinson and Brydon Carse on a pace bowling camp led by James Anderson.
