Indian T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav has provided information on Shreyas Iyer's health. Ahead of the five-match T20 series against Australia, starting Wednesday, Suryakumar confirmed that Shreyas is now out of danger and doing well. Shreyas, the Indian ODI vice-captain, had been in the intensive care unit (ICU) of a Sydney hospital for the past two days. He was admitted to the hospital after reports revealed internal bleeding.
Injured while taking a catch
He suffered a rib injury during the third ODI against Australia. The injury occurred while running backward from the backward point to catch Alex Carey. Suryakumar Yadav was asked about Shreyas's health. The T20 captain stated that Shreyas is stable and is responding to messages. He added that Shreyas will be kept under observation for a few more days, but is currently out of danger.
Suryakumar said in the press conference before the first T20, "On the first day, when I found out he was injured, I called him. I found out he didn't have his phone. So, I called the physio, and he told me Shreyas was stable. You can't be sure about anything on the first day. But I've been talking to Shreyas for the last two days, and he's been answering the phone. If he's answering, it means he's stable. He looks fine, and the doctors are with him. But he'll be under observation for the next few days. If he's responding to messages, that's a good thing."
BCCI gave an update
According to sources, the 31-year-old Iyer fainted in the dressing room. He was immediately rushed to the hospital. Scans revealed an internal injury. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) provided a fitness update on Shreyas on Monday, stating that he had a lower left rib injury. He has been admitted to the hospital for further evaluation. Scans revealed a spleen injury. His condition is stable, but the injury could have been fatal. He is now recovering.
