Star all-rounder Andre Russel’s form in the ongoing season of the IPL has blown hot and cold, with his 15-ball 21 on Monday in the 39-run loss to Gujarat Titans was his season’s highest score so far.
Trinidad and Tobago Knight Riders (TKR) all-rounder Dwayne Bravo has played his final match in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL), bringing an unexpected and emotional end to an illustrious career.
The ACB stated that Bravo is set to join the team during the preparatory camp ahead of the marquee event in the Caribbean.
After victories in Dubai and Sharjah, CSK move to Abu Dhabi for their next IPL match against Kolkata Knight Riders on September 26 afternoon.
Bravo admitted of the might in the batting order after him. "I must be honest, at some point I was trying to get out at the back end to allow Russell and these guys to finish off," he said.
With 15 titles now, Kieron Pollard achieved the milestone by overtaking his national teammate Dwayne Bravo, who has won 14 T20 titles so far.
Dwayne Bravo, who has been ruled out of IPL due to injury, featured for CSK in just six matches this season, scoring seven runs and picking up six wickets.
Dwayne Bravo has suffered a Grade 1 tear to his right groin and would be leaving the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for the West Indies on Thursday.
Bravo feels that Dhoni's task at CSK will be of less pressure than what he must have faced while being the captain of India but that won't change the veteran wicketkeeper's approach.
The scale of Dwayne Bravo's achievement can be measured by the fact that no other bowler has even taken 400 wickets in the shortest format.
