New Delhi, Feb 9: Shreyas Iyer is unlikely to be picked in the India squad for the remaining three Tests against England after complaining of stiffness in his back and groin.
Iyer has had recurring troubles with his back and had also undergone a surgery last year.
The 29-year-old made 35, 13, 27, 29 in the opening two Tests in Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam and was guilty of not building on the starts.
“He has complained of stiffness and back issue and is unlikely to take part in the remainder of the series,” a BCCI source told PTI.
India are already reeling with injuries to key players K L Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja. Star batter Virat Kohli had missed the first two Tests due to personal reasons and is unlikely to be available for the games in Rajkot and Ranchi as well. (PTI)
