India’s ODI vice-captain Shreyas Iyer will remain in a Sydney hospital for at least a week after suffering a laceration to his spleen and internal bleeding during the third ODI against Australia. What initially looked like a painful landing while taking a spectacular catch off Alex Carey’s shot has turned into one of the most serious injuries of his career.
According to NDTV, Iyer briefly lost consciousness in the dressing room, with his vitals dropping alarmingly before the team’s medical staff rushed him to the hospital. Scans later revealed a spleen injury, and he was immediately admitted to the ICU. The BCCI medical team and specialists in both Sydney and India are monitoring his condition closely, with one of Iyer’s family members now by his side in Australia.
How crucial is Iyer to India’s ODI setup?
For India, Iyer’s absence would’ve been massive if he was certain to miss some matches. After all, the 30-year-old has been one of the most consistent performers at number four since 2022, ending the country’s long search for stability in that position. He has scored 1430 runs at an average of 55 and a strike rate nearing 100 at number four in this period. Even in the second ODI at Adelaide, Iyer looked fluent, scoring 61 with a new side-on stance.
While the reports initially said he may be out for a minimum of three weeks, now it will take months. He is now most certain to miss the three one-day internationals against South Africa at home.
