Sentinel Digital Desk

New Delhi : India batter Shreyas Iyer is in doubt for the upcoming three-match ODI series against Australia starting March 17 due to the recurrence of his back injury.

After having spent nearly two full days on the field, Iyer complained of swelling in his lower back during the Ahmedabad Test and didn’t come to bat in the fourth and final Test against Australia. He is currently under the supervision of BCCI’s medical team at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru, where he will be assessed, an ESPNcricinfo report said. The report further said that the right-handed batter flew out of Ahmedabad even before the Test ended to seek a prognosis of his condition and is certain to miss at least the first ODI.
