Team India’s middle-order batter Shreyas Iyer is on the road to recovery after suffering a serious abdominal injury during the third ODI against Australia on October 25, 2025. While fielding in the match, Iyer sustained a blunt injury to his abdomen, which led to a spleen laceration accompanied by internal bleeding.
Medical personnel responded swiftly, and the bleeding was brought under control following a minor medical procedure.
