T20 World Cup 2022: Teamwise one player who might not get single game

4. New Zealand - Michael Bracewell

Micheal Bracewell has set the international circuit ablaze with his exploits with the bat and bowl. Talking about the shortest format, he has played eight games for New Zealand and has smashed 89 runs at an insane strike rate of 206.97. He has also taken nine wickets at an economy of 5.59.

The ace all-rounder has performed quite well in ODIs as well scoring 264 runs in 12 games at a strike rate of 110.92 and has also taken10 scalps for his team. Bracewell’s splendid performances enabled him to break into the Blackcaps’ T20 World Cup squad. His inclusion adds depth to the side but given the makeup of the team, it might be difficult for him to get a game.

New Zealand is likely to field veteran all-rounders James Neesham, Daryl Mitchell, and Mitchell Santner in the XI and this makes slotting in another all-rounder doubtful. Also, if the team ponders upon including a spinner, the veteran Ish Sodhi is likely to get a nod ahead of Bracewell and Australian conditions would not require three spinners in the XI any day. Thus the all-rounder might not get any games at the global tournament.
