MUMBAI: Shreyas Iyer’s worst fears seem to be coming true. It looks that the India batsman’s back injury seems to have flared up again during his 95-run knock in the second innings in the Ranji Trophy final at the Wankhede Stadium.
The recurring injury, for which the Mumbaikar underwent surgery last year, now threatens to put his participation in the initial stage of IPL2024, where he leads the Kolkata Knight Riders, in doubt, which will be a huge worry for KKR with just nine days left before their first match in the League. The IPL is set to kick off on March 22, with KKR playing their first match against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Kolkata on March 23.
