Ravindra gets ODI call-up, Bracewell off to IPL

Black Caps allrounder Michael Bracewell will join the exodus to the Indian Premier League once the test series against Sri Lanka ends. Bracewell has been called into the Royal Challengers Bangalore squad to replace injured

England spin-bowling allrounder Will Jacks. That means he won’t be part of the New Zealand ODI squad for its upcoming three-game series against the tourists, starting in Auckland on Saturday. Bracewell will be replaced by Wellington allrounder Rachin Ravindra, who has played tests and T20Is for New Zealand, but has yet to represent them in the one-day arena. Black Caps coach Gary Stead said the moves provided opportunities for both players.
