Short Profile:
West Indian Dwayne Bravo is one of the most exciting all-rounders in international cricket today. An explosive batsman and an attacking bowler, Bravo can turn matches around with a bowling spell or a burst of powerful stroke-play.Bravo made his debut against England in 2004. However, his best performances came against Team India in the 2006 series in the West Indies. In fact, his first ODI century came in the trying circumstances of the 2006 Champions Trophy in India. He also captained the West Indies team in the ODIs and tests for a brief period when Chris Gayle was out with an injury.Although he played only a few of the matches, his performance in the first IPL for the Mumbai Indians was above par. He was one of the top wicket takers for the Mumbai Indians, and the fourth top scorer in the tournament.
