New Zealand all-rounder Doug Bracewell, 35, has announced his retirement from all forms of cricket, concluding a 14-year career. Bracewell played 28 Tests, 21 ODIs, and 20 T20Is for New Zealand between 2011 and 2023. A persistent rib injury influenced his decision. A career highlight includes his pivotal role in New Zealand's 2011 Test victory over Australia in Hobart, where he took 6-40. He also achieved the first-class double of 4,000 runs and 400 wickets.
