According to a report by ESPNCricinfo, the team is yet to receive their visas and has had to cancel their team-bonding trip to the UAE in light of the situation. The applications for visas are said to have been submitted over a week ago.
The Pakistani squad will first go up against New Zealand in a warm-up match on September 29 which will be played behind closed doors in Hyderabad for security reasons.
It is believed as the city is staging two major religious festivals on the same door the police are unable to provide satisfactory security to the players.

However, unconfirmed sources have stated that the visas will be granted in time to allow the 1992 World Cup champions to travel to India on Wednesday, September 27, where they will join the nine other teams participating in the October 5 to November 19 cricketing showpiece.
