Plural support for typescript in Angular 18

Currently, I am upgrading my app to angular 18 and also am migrating i18n from ngx-translate to angular/localize. Unfortunately, I couldn't achieve plural in typescript, I can do the same in html. Below is my translation text, can someone suggest whether is it support? if yes guide me how to do that properly,

const i18NValue = $localize@MessageID:Found {count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}};


Expected text: Found item or Found items.

After extract when I check the trans-unit

Found {count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}}


this doesn't recognise as ICU.

Tried changing the localization expression, e.g.:

$localize@MessageID:Found ${count}:{count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}};

$localize@MessageID:Found {${count}, plural, =1 {item} other {items}};

$localize@MessageID:Found ${count, plural, =1 {item} other {items}};


but nothing worked.
