Gaikwad
complained
of
the
pain
after
Maharashtra’s
Ranji
Trophy
game
against
Hyderabad
last
week.
The
25-year-old
batter
is
part
of
India’s
T20
squad
against
New
Zealand,
starting
in
Ranchi
on
Friday.
Gaikwad,
who
missed
a
T20
series
against
Sri
Lanka
last
year
as
well,
informed
the
medical
team
of
BCCI
of
the
pain
after
the
match
and
was
advised
further
medical
treatment
at
the
NCA.
Shaw
made
a

team
recently.

Gaikwad’s
likely
absence
may
open
up
opportunities
for
Prithvi
Shaw,
who
made
a
return
to
the
Indian
team
after
a
splendid
show
in
the
domestic
circuit
off
late.
Gaikwad
joined
Shreyas
Iyer
at
the
NCA
with
the
latter
recovering
from
a
back
injury,
which
forced
him
out
of
the
ODI
series
against
New
Zealand.
Rajat
Patidar
was
named
his
replacement
but
the
middle-order
is
still
in
the
squad
for
the
first
two
Tests
against
Australia,
starting
next
month.
Earlier
on
Tuesday,
India
defeated
New
Zealand
3-0
in
the
ODI
series
with
the
final
match
taking
place
at
Indore’s
Holker
Stadium.
