England spinner Rehan Ahmed faced a visa issue as he was stopped at the Hirasar Airpot ahead of the India vs England 3rd Test series.
The five-match test series between India and England is levelled at 1-1. The India vs England 3rd Test series will be played at Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium on Thursday.
