India batsman Shreyas Iyer did not participate in the field on Day 4 of the ongoing Ranji Trophy 2023-24 final between Mumbai and Vidarbha. According to the Mumbai team manager, Iyer experienced back pain and was deemed unfit to take the field.
Shreyas Iyer has become a topic of discussion in Indian cricket circles. After his exclusion from the BCCI’s annual contract, there has been significant attention on him. He was removed from the contract due to his refusal to participate in the Ranji Trophy, which resulted in disagreement with the governing body.
After Shreyas Iyer’s appearance at a pre-season camp with the Kolkata Knight Riders, the BCCI expressed dissatisfaction and consequently removed him from the annual contract. However, subsequent reports emerged, providing additional context and presenting a perspective that favored the player.

Shreyas Iyer’s absence on Day 4 of the ongoing Ranji Trophy 2023-24 final between Mumbai and Vidarbha has fueled belief in the credibility of reports favoring the batter. Known for his pivotal role in the team during ODIs and Tests last year, Iyer’s absence has raised questions. However, according to the Mumbai team manager, Iyer is now reported to be in good health after experiencing back pain on Day 4.
Iyer missed the IPL last year due to back pain only and in place of him, Nitish Rana was assigned the captaincy role. KKR fans will definitely pray for their captain to be fit before IPL 2024.
