Who Is Rachin Ravindra - New Zealand's Cricket World Cup 2023 Hero Named After Rahul Dravid And Sachin Tendulkar

Rachin Ravindra made perfect use of his promotion in the New Zealand batting order to slam his maiden century and guide his team to a sensational win over England in the Cricket World Cup 2023 opener in Ahmedabad on Thursday.
