Shreyas Iyer, India's ODI vice-captain, who sustained a spleen laceration injury during the third ODI against Australia in Sydney, and was later admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), is now stable.

Iyer suffered a lower left rib cage injury while trying to take a tough running catch to dismiss Alex Carey off Harshit Rana’s bowling during the third ODI against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Saturday, October 25. Although he initially left the field with help from the physio, his condition worsened later as his vital signs parameters dropped leading to his immediate hospitalization.

Further tests revealed internal bleeding due to a splenic laceration, after which he was moved to the ICU for close observation.
