Michael Bracewell Doubtful for T20Is as Kristian Clarke Stays with New Zealand Squad

New Zealand all-rounder Michael Bracewell is doubtful for the upcoming five-match T20I series against India due to a minor left calf strain sustained during the third ODI. Bracewell has traveled with the squad to Nagpur but will be monitored before confirming his participation. To bolster pace options, pacer Kristian Clarke, who impressed with seven wickets in the ODI series, will remain with the squad for the first three T20Is. Coach Rob Walter highlighted ongoing player movements and the need for quick recovery ahead of the series.
