AHMEDABAD: Pain in his lower back forced India’s Shreyas Iyer to miss his batting turn on Day Four of the fourth Test against Australia here. There is a possibility that Shreyas, who has been suffering from recurring back pain, could miss the upcoming ODI series against Australia, beginning March 17 in Mumbai. “Shreyas Iyer complained of pain in his lower back following the third day’s play. He has gone for scans and the BCCI Medical Team is monitoring him,” the BCCI said on Sunday. Shreyas’s injury came to light after wicketkeeper-batter KS Bharat came out to bat ahead of him following the dismissal of Ravindra Jadeja in the morning session. Shreyas had missed the first Test in Nagpur due to a back issue before returning for the second match in New Delhi.
