Indian cricketer Shreyas Iyer has been hospitalized in Sydney after sustaining a significant injury during the third one-day international (ODI) against Australia. The incident occurred on Saturday when Iyer, attempting to take a catch to dismiss Alex Carey, fell awkwardly on the field, clutching his side in visible pain. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) confirmed on Monday that Iyer suffered a lacerated spleen and is currently receiving medical care. Despite the injury, India secured a nine-wicket victory in the match, although Australia had already clinched the series with wins in the first two ODIs in Perth and Adelaide. Iyer underwent immediate on-field treatment but did not return to play. The BCCI stated that he is medically stable and recovering well, with the team doctor remaining in Sydney to monitor his progress. India is set to face Australia in a five-match Twenty20 series starting in Canberra on Wednesday.
