Bracken In Doubt For IPL
Nathan Bracken, the Man Of The Series in the recently concluded CB series has suffered a career threatening injury. His knee cartilage has been found torn and he underwent a surgery last week. The doctor found the cartilage peeling off. The doctor himself said that he was amused to see Nathan Bracken land his foot so hard while bowling even with this injury.
Though Nathan Bracken admitted that he was fairly uncomfortable, he said that this might have ended his International Career. He has been advised eight to ten weeks rest and henceforth will be in doubt for the IPL starting April 18. This will surely hurt the Bangalore Royal Challengers a lot as they would have loved to have this in-form bowler in their ranks. But I’m happy that this career isn’t cut-short.
