Rehan Ahmed, the England spinner, faced visa trouble as he arrived in Rajkot for the third Test match. He was held up at Hirasar Airport for two hours on Monday, February 12, because of insufficient documents. He had a single-entry visa and had come back to India from the UAE, where the England team had their pre-season camp during the 10-day break between the second and third Tests.
The authorities acted quickly and gave Rehan a temporary two-day visa to sort out the problem. The England team had two days to sort out the problem. The ECB is confident of resolving it in the next 24 hours.The rest of the England team and support staff had no problems and reached their hotel in Rajkot by Monday evening.

I feel sorry for Rehan Ahmed. He must have been excited to play in India, but this visa issue has spoiled his mood. I hope he can overcome this setback and perform well in the third Test.

This is another example of how India is making things difficult for the visiting team. They should have been more cooperative and understanding with Rehan Ahmed. He is not a criminal, he is a cricketer.

Rehan Ahmed is a promising spinner and I was looking forward to seeing him play in the third Test. I hope the authorities can sort out his visa quickly and he can get some practice before the match.
