AFP, Sydney :
Star opening batsman David Warner faces a battle to be fit for the India Test series after Cricket Australia said Monday he will miss the last one-day international and the three-match Twenty20 series next month.
Warner limped out of Sunday’s one-day international against India after straining his groin while fielding as Australia secured the series 2-0 in Sydney.
After a typically swashbuckling innings of 83 on Sunday, Warner fell awkwardly and had to be helped from the field.
Warner will miss Wednesday’s final ODI and all three Twenty20 internationals beginning Friday in Canberra to undergo rehab in an effort to ready for the Test series which begins on December 17 in Adelaide.
