According to reports, KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer is likely to miss this season of IPL as he is still struggling with his lower back injury. He did not come out to bat in the recently finished fourth Test against Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. He might be going for back surgery which will take a period of four-five months to recuperate.
