IND vs AUS ODI: Players who can replace injured Shreyas Iyer in India's ODI Squad against Australia: Amidst the IND vs AUS 4th Test, team India has dealt a serious blow in the form of middle-order batter Shreyas Iyer, who has been ruled out of ongoing India vs Australia 4th Test in Ahmedabad. Iyer complained of lower back pain and was subsequently taken for scans, as said by the BCCI in the statement release.
While Shreyas Iyer is already ruled out of the IND vs AUS 4th Test, he is also expected to miss the upcoming IND vs AUS ODI games owing to his lower-back injury.
Notably, Iyer didn't come to bat in India's innings in the ongoing 4th test match at the Narendra Modi Stadium. Yesterday, Ravindra Jadeja came out at the number 5 position, which is Iyer's usual batting order in the Indian test team.
The final reports of the medical scans haven't come yet. However, cricket pundits believe that Shreyas Iyer may have to miss out on the three-game ODI series against Australia, which starts on March 17 in Mumbai.

IND vs AUS ODI: Players who can replace injured Shreyas Iyer
Sanju Samson: While it is still a mystery why Sanju Samson was dropped from India's ODI squad despite having a stellar year with the bat, he will be the probable player who could replace Shreyas Iyer in India's ODI Squad against Australia. In the 11 ODI innings, Samson has managed to keep his average at 66 while striking at 104.76.
Deepak Hooda: Deepak Hooda played a key role in further deepening India's batting in the shortest format of cricket. Although he has been a massive hit in the T20Is, his talent is yet to be discovered in the 50-over games. Shreyas Iyer's injury might open doors for his inclusion in India's ODI squad.
Rajat Patidar: The other option to replace Shreyas Iyer in the Indian ODI Squad against Australia would be Rajat Patidar. The right-handed batter is yet to make his ODI debut but has been in India's squad against South Africa and Bangladesh. He is a fine striker of the spin which makes him an ideal choice for replacing Shreyas Iyer in the squad.
