Mumbai's top-order batsman Shreyas Iyer has been added to the India squad for the fourth Test against Australia at Dharamsala, starting on Saturday, March 25. 

Iyer has been called up as a cover for Virat Kohli, who injured his shoulder during the third Test in Ranchi. 

Kohli on Thursday skipped batting at India's net session as he is nursing an injury on his right shoulder sustained while trying to save a boundary in Australia's first innings at Ranchi.

While there were speculations that he would be forced to take a break, Kohli defied odds as he came out to bat even though he didn't score too many runs in the third Test.

Kohli was present at the ground with his team-mates. With a bandaged right shoulder, Kohli took part in the customary warm-up.
