Australia’s leading fast bowler Mitchell Starc was in hospital Friday following surgery on a leg wound which required 30 stitches.
Starc, 26, suffered deep lacerations after colliding with training equipment on Thursday, Cricket Australia said.
Left-armer Starc, who was rested from Australia’s tour of South Africa later this month, is expected to have his left shin in a brace for up to three weeks to aid his recovery.
“There were no bone fractures or tendon damage to his leg and he underwent surgery to clean the wound and received approximately 30 stitches,” Cricket Australia Chief Medical Officer John Orchard said.
