Shreyas Iyer is currently injured and is undergoing treatment in the hospital. He got injured while catching the ball against Australia in Sydney. It was told that he suffered an injury below his left rib, for which he had to undergo an operation. He is undergoing treatment in Sydney and as per the latest update, he has come out of ICU. But this question must have also come in your mind whether Shreyas Iyer himself is bearing the expenses of the treatment or someone else? Know here, what is its rule?
Who bears the expenses of the injured player?
Whenever a player gets injured on a foreign tour, BCCI bears the expenses of his medical examination. Under the medical insurance policy of BCCI, it is the responsibility of BCCI to bear the cost of medical examination of the players coming in the central contract list. Along with this, BCCI also bears the expenses when the player is going through the rehabilitation process. The board will also give compensation to Iyer for not getting match fees in the next matches.
For example, when Shreyas Iyer got injured in Sydney, the BCCI medical team was the first to start treatment with the help of specialist doctors available in Australia. To recover from injury, players are given rehabilitation facilities at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru. For this the player himself does not have to bear any expense. There is an insurance policy even for players who are not in the central contract list, but they do not get so many facilities.
Talking about Shreyas Iyer, his life was said to be in danger because his condition had become more serious due to internal bleeding. For this he also had to be admitted to ICU. He is in danger of being out of the ODI series against South Africa. India vs South Africa ODI series will be played from 30 November-6 December.
