All-rounder Samit Patel has been called up to the England squad for the Test series against Pakistan in the UAE, replacing the injured Zafar Ansari.
Twenty-three-year-old Surrey left-arm spinner Ansari, uncapped in Tests, has been ruled out after dislocating a thumb playing against Lancashire.
Nottinghamshire's Patel, 30, made the last of his five Test appearances in December 2012 against India.
England face Pakistan in the first of three Tests on 13 October in Abu Dhabi.
