National team batter Shreyas Iyer experienced a lacerated spleen and entered a Sydney hospital following an unfortunate tumble while attempting a catch during the final ODI match versus Australia, according to team officials.
The experienced player sustained the injury on match day while catching to remove Alex Carey, with the athlete clutching his side and showing discomfort after falling onto the SCG turf.
Scans have revealed a laceration injury to the spleen. He is under treatment, medically stable, and showing improvement.
After receiving on-field treatment, the batter did not return in the match, which India ultimately won by nine wickets. Australia had already won the series with wins in the initial games played in Western and South Australian cities.
The medical emergency was reportedly "life threatening at that moment," according to news sources.
The medical representative will remain in Sydney with Shreyas to assess his daily improvement and guarantee proper recovery from the serious medical condition.
India's upcoming matches include a five-match Twenty20 series versus Australia, starting in Canberra on midweek. Iyer won't participate in the T20 squad due to his ongoing recovery.
