New Delhi: India batsman Shreyas Iyer has been discharged from hospital after lacerating his spleen when falling heavily in a one-day clash against Australia, cricket officials said Saturday.
The 30-year-old vice-captain doubled over in pain after pulling off a sensational catch to remove Alex Carey in the third ODI in Sydney last week.
The Indian ODI vice-captain was forced off the field and hospitalised.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) said Saturday that he is "now stable and recovering well", and that "he has been discharged from the hospital".
"Shreyas will continue to stay in Sydney for follow-up consultations and will return to India once he is deemed fit to fly," it added.
