Indian cricket star Shreyas Iyer experienced a spleen laceration and was admitted to a Sydney hospital following an unfortunate tumble while taking a catch during the final ODI match against Australia, according to cricket authorities.
The 30-year-old sustained the injury on match day while fielding to remove Alex Carey, with the athlete holding his abdomen and showing discomfort after falling onto the Sydney Cricket Ground field.
Medical examinations showed a laceration injury to the abdominal organ. He is under medical care, in stable condition, and showing improvement.
Following immediate medical attention, the player did not return in the game, which India ultimately won by a significant margin. Australia had previously secured the tournament with earlier victories in the first two matches 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 stay at Sydney with Shreyas to assess his daily improvement and ensure proper healing from the serious medical condition.
India's upcoming matches include a five-match Twenty20 series versus Australia, beginning in the capital city on Wednesday. Iyer won't participate in the T20 squad due to his current condition.
