Sussex's Tom Haines and Jack Carson have both been called up to the England Lions Training Group for the upcoming trip to the UAE as the England Men’s team prepare for a Test series against Pakistan.

Jofra Archer and Ollie Robinson will also travel with the squad, with Jofra continuing his rehabilitation programme and Ollie beginning preparations for the series.

The England Lions have announced a 15-player training group to travel to the UAE this month. As well as offering developmental experiences to the players selected, the trip will support England Men's Test preparation for Pakistan with five members of the Test squad arriving ahead of the Test tour and three pace bowlers joining the group to continue their rehabilitation from injury.

England Men will travel to Abu Dhabi on November 18 and will play a three-day practice match against England Lions from November 23-25.

ECB Performance Director Mo Bobat said: "It’s great to be able to recommence Lions developmental experiences and the camp in Dubai and Abu Dhabi represents a fantastic opportunity for a high potential group of players.

“While we aim to ensure that Lions opportunities are closely aligned to England’s future needs, we also try to be as individualised as possible with our player programming. Selection for the camp was conducted in close collaboration with both players and counties, and there are a number of players that have been encouraged and supported to take up other opportunities at home and overseas.

"The camp also supports the England Men's team in their preparation for Pakistan, allowing England and Lions players to work closely together in overseas conditions."
