Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) have brought in New Zealand’s Michael Bracewell as a replacement for England batter Will Jacks for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. Jacks, who was bought by the franchise for INR 3.2 crore in the IPL 2023 auction, has been ruled out of the tournament due to an injury.
It’s a big loss for RCB as Jacks was seen as a player who could replace Glenn Maxwell in the playing XI if required. Jacks is a batter who can also bowl off-spin.
