NEW DELHI: Australia all-rounder Cameron Green will miss the upcoming five-Test series against India starting in November due to a spine injury that requires surgery this week. The 25-year-old experienced back pain during Australia's ODI tour of England in September and was immediately sent home for further evaluation.
According to Cricket Australia, "Whilst spine stress fractures are not unusual in pace bowlers, Cam has a unique defect in an adjacent area to the fracture that is believed to be contributing to the injury."
