Missing an aayat while performing salaah

Q: While reciting Quraan in prayer, if one recites first two verses of a surah but forgets to reicte the third verse and goes on to the fourth verse, meaning he has recited total of three verses but had omitted one verse in between by mistske, would the prayer be valid?

A: Yes.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
