India seamer Praveen Kumar has been ruled out of the upcoming Test series in Australia after fracturing a rib.
Kumar's replacement for the Australia tour will be named on December 5.
The 25-year-old has bagged 27 wickets in six Tests and 69 wickets in 61 one-day internationals.
India open the three-month tour on December 15 with two practise matches in Canberra ahead of the first Test starting at the MCG on Boxing Day.
The remaining Tests will be played in Sydney, Perth and Adelaide.
This will be followed by two Twenty20 internationals, before Sri Lanka join in for a one-day tri-series from February 5.
