Indian cricket vice-captain Shreyas Iyer has been moved out of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at a Sydney hospital after sustaining a serious injury during the third ODI against Australia on Sunday.

Iyer suffered internal bleeding and a spleen laceration after a hard fall while taking a spectacular catch to dismiss Alex Carey. He was rushed to the hospital after reportedly fainting in the dressing room and showing unstable vital signs. The BCCI Medical Team, along with specialists in Sydney and India, is monitoring his condition closely.

In a statement, the BCCI said, “Shreyas Iyer sustained an impact injury to his left lower rib cage. Scans revealed a laceration injury to the spleen. He is medically stable and recovering well”. The board confirmed that the Indian team doctor will remain in Sydney to oversee his recovery.
