Player of the match for no runs or wickets #euphoriacricket #cricketplayer

This elderly gentleman is a two-time World Cup champion. His name is Nathan Bracken, and he holds a truly unique record. He is one of the rare individuals who received the Player of the Match award without scoring a run, taking a catch, or affecting a run-out. In a 2009 T20I match between Australia and New Zealand, Australia was defending 150, and the Australian bowlers did a solid job, taking wickets at regular intervals and preventing any significant partnerships from forming. Nathan Bracken’s bowling, in particular, was outstanding. Before the 20th over, he had only conceded six runs in his three overs and even bowled a maiden. His captain then called on him to defend 14 runs in the final over, which he did brilliantly, securing the victory for his team. Despite his figures of 0-16, he was recognized as the Player of the Match.
