Australia star ruled out of England tour with back injury

Australia have been dealt another blow during the ongoing limited-overs tour of UK.

Australia all-rounder Cameron Green has been ruled out of the ongoing tour of England with a back injury and could be doubtful for the home Test series against India later this year.

Green, who complained of back pain after the third ODI against England, isn't part of the XI for the fourth ODI after scans revealed the injury.

Australia have been dealt multiple injury blows during this UK tour with Green being the fifth one to be ruled out after Nathan Ellis, Xavier Bartlett, Riley Meredith and Ben Dwarshuis.

Cricket.com.au reported that the extent of Green's injury would be known only after the all-rounder arrives home for further assessment.

Green is a key part of the Australian Test side as well and with the major ICC World Test Championship series against India coming up later this year, there will be concerns around the timeline of his recovery.
