The trio had reached India earlier than their colleagues and having already cleared their three RT-PCR tests could hit the nets on Saturday.
"The first group of players - Archer, Burns and Stokes - will practice each morning for the next three days. They are limited to a two-hour session," England's media manager Danny Reuben informed.
"The entire England touring party received their second PCR COVID-19 test yesterday. All results returned negative results," he added.
The full England squad is scheduled to start its training from February 2 ahead of the series opener against India, starting February 5 here.
