Australian batsman Usman Khawaja has been granted a visa for India, meaning he can play in next month's Champions League Twenty20 tournament if selected in the NSW squad.
Khawaja's visa was processed on Wednesday by the Indian Consulate in Sydney.
Cricket Australia (CA) confirmed on Tuesday that Khawaja's visa had
been held up by officials at the Indian High Commission.
"Cricket NSW and Cricket Australia are seeking to understand the detail behind the stoppage with our colleagues at the Indian High Commission,'' CA spokesman Philip Pope told AFP on Tuesday.
The Pakistan-born Australian player vented his anger about the delay on Twitter, suggesting he was being refused the permit because of his country of birth.
