England chief Andrew Strauss has said players have three days left to decide if they are willing to tour Bangladesh amid ongoing security concerns surrounding the country.
The former England captain made it clear that anyone who opted out ran the risk of losing their international position if a stand-in did well in their absence.
All-rounders Moeen Ali and Chris Jordan have both said they are unequivocally available to tour and Alastair Cook, England’s Test captain, is believed to have given a private assurance to the same effect.
However, limited overs captain Eoin Morgan has yet to commit to a tour whose future was called into question after an attack on a Dhaka cafe in July that saw 20 hostages killed.
