Team India batter Shreyas Iyer has been declared stable and recovering well after suffering a spleen injury during the third ODI between India and Australia on October 25, 2025, in Sydney.
According to a BCCI medical update, Iyer sustained a blunt injury to his abdomen while fielding, which led to a laceration of the spleen and internal bleeding. The injury was identified quickly, and medical staff acted immediately to control the bleeding through a minor procedure.
Shreyas received expert medical care in Sydney, where specialists ensured the internal injury was managed effectively. The BCCI Medical Team, along with local doctors, have confirmed that he is now out of danger and recovering well.
“Shreyas Iyer is stable and progressing positively. He has been discharged from the hospital and will remain in Sydney for follow-up consultations before returning to India,” the BCCI said in an official statement.
The board also extended its gratitude to Dr Kouroush Haghigi and his team in Sydney, as well as Dr Dinshaw Pardiwala from India, for providing timely and expert medical support.
Iyer’s injury comes as a blow for India during the ongoing Australia vs India ODI series 2025, where he has been a key middle-order player. While there is no official timeline yet for his return, sources indicate that the BCCI medical team will closely monitor his recovery before clearing him for travel and training.
With the BCCI confirming his discharge from hospital and steady progress, Shreyas Iyer’s condition continues to improve, bringing relief to Indian cricket fans ahead of the upcoming fixtures.
