New Zealand all-rounder Michael Bracewell has been ruled out of the remainder of the Twenty20 World Cup due to a re-injured calf. Cole McConchie will take his place in the squad. Bracewell initially injured his calf last month and re-injured it during warm-ups. New Zealand beat UAE and will next play South Africa.

Bracewell tore his calf in the one-day international series against India last month and recovered in time for the World Cup but damaged the muscle again during warm-ups ahead of Sunday's win over Afghanistan. "We're all feeling for Michael. It's really tough to get ruled out of a World Cup and I know how much playing for New Zealand means to him," head coach Rob Walter said. "Cole is a seasoned campaigner. He brings a great all-round skillset to the group along with a lot of T20 experience. It's great to be able to lean on an experienced head especially for a World Cup." New Zealand beat UAE by 10 wickets on Tuesday to top Group D and next play South Africa on Saturday in Ahmedabad.Cricket-Fans excited about Pakistan v India T20 World Cup match after boycott reversedCricket-South Africa begin T20 World Cup campaign with a commanding 57-run win over Canada
