In the audio clip, Lara said, "Hi everyone, I know everyone is concerned with what's happening. I think I extended myself a little too much in the gym this morning and felt pain in my chest so I felt best to see a doctor."

"I went to the hospital, I am just chilling in my hospital bed, tests have been conducted and I am watching England versus Australia and I hope Australia will be able to restrict England. I'll be fine soon and I am letting everyone know that I am fine and I will be back in my hotel room tomorrow," he added.

Lara was admitted to Global Hospital in Parel, Mumbai, after he complained of chest pain.

The doctors performed an angiography of Lara. The cricketer is in Mumbai for doing commentary for Star Sports for the ongoing World Cup.
