Champions Trophy: Bracewell’s Relentless Four-fer Spell Restricts Bangladesh To 236/9
Skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto: Michael Bracewell’s four-fer, along with two wickets by William O’Rourke helped New Zealand restrict Bangladesh to 236/9 at the end of 50 overs in a crucial league match of the Champions Trophy 2025 at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium here on Monday.
Skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto top scored with 77 runs for Bangladesh, whilst Jaker Ali provided support at the back end with a 45-run contribution in a match that Bangladesh needed to win to keep the group scenarios alive. Bangladesh lost their opening match to India while New Zealand defeated hosts Pakistan in the opener. By winning this match, New Zealand will seal their place in the semifinals.
Bracewell became the first NZ spinner, since Paul Wiseman in 2002, to take a four-fer in ICC Champions Trophy. He ended the night with figures of 4-26, having bowled 43 dot balls in his designated ten overs. Bracewell's efforts were also the best-ever figures for a Black Caps spinner in the tournament.
