The trip will see the Lions play five 50-over matches and two A Tests.

It comes off the back of a series in the UAE, against Pakistan A, in which the hosts narrowly won the four-day and 50-over series and the Lions claimed the T20 leg.

Three players have earned their first call-up to the Lions: Lancashire’s Tom Bailey, and the Nottinghamshire duo of Matthew Carter and Zak Chappell.
