The Mumbai and India team batsman is recovering following surgery on his shoulder.

"We are obviously very disappointed, as we were thoroughly looking forward to welcoming Shreyas to Emirates Old Trafford," said Paul Allott, Lancashire's director of cricket.

"Ultimately Shreyas' long-term fitness is of paramount importance and Lancashire Cricket fully respects the decision," he added.

"We wish Shreyas all the best with the remainder of his recovery, and from the conversations, which I have had with the player, believe that this is an arrangement he would be keen to revisit again in the future," said Allott further.
