    'I Realised It Was Serious When I Was In Hospital’: Shreyas Opens Up On 'excruciatingly Painful' Spleen Injury

    Niranjan Shah Stadium: India batter Shreyas Iyer said he only realised the severity of his spleen injury picked up during the third ODI against Australia after being admitted to hospital, describing the ordeal as ‘excruciatingly painful’.

    After that injury, Iyer made a successful return to action by making 49 in India’s ODI series opening win over New Zealand in Vadodara. “It was painful, excruciatingly painful. I didn't realise how tough that injury was until I got to know that spleen is an important part of our body and it's an organ and I didn't even know about the word.

    "Then the next day when I was admitted to the hospital, after that I realised, ‘Wow, okay, this was a severe injury.’ Yes, it was (spleen was learnt as a new word that day),” said Iyer in a chat with broadcasters ahead of the second ODI at Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot.
