Michael Bracewell to undergo surgery: BLACKCAPS all-rounder Michael Bracewell is set to be sidelined for six to eight months after rupturing his right achilles while batting for the Worcestershire Rapids in the English T20 Blast.
Michael Bracewell will undergo surgery in the UK :-
The reigning ANZ Men’s ODI Player of the Year will undergo surgery in the UK this Thursday before beginning a lengthy rehabilitation. It will rule him out of the upcoming ICC Cricket World Cup in India this October-November.
New Zealand coach Gary Stead said :-
It was a big blow for Bracewell and the team.
“Firstly, you always feel for the player when injury strikes and especially when it means they will have to miss a world event,” Stead said.
“Michael’s naturally pretty disappointed, but also pragmatic in acknowledging that injuries are a part of sport. He’s now turning his focus to his rehabilitation.”
Blackcaps will hold simultaneous winter training camps :-
Bracewell, who has been away from New Zealand since April after being called up to the IPL, won’t be able to fly home for a couple of weeks following surgery.
The BLACKCAPS will hold simultaneous winter training camps at Lincoln and Tauranga from July 26–28 and August 9–11.
