Dwayne Bravo has been around long enough to be acclaimed as one of the best All-rounder the game has ever produced. Several things are associated with his name: hard hitter, charlatan bowler, athletic fielder but above all he’s famous for his lifelong association with his IPL side Chennai Super Kings. And in the first qualifier of IPL 2021, Bravo is going to play in his 150th in IPL.
150* Matches 🥳

He started his career with Mumbai Indians initially. He played 3 seasons with the star team, before signing for CSK in 2011. Since then, he has been a key element to the squad. He is a complete entertainer, yes, he’s known for his talent with the ball in his hand, but he’s also got some power-hitting capabilities too. If he’s taken 165 wickets with the ball, he has also scored 1,537 runs with the bat in hand. It includes 5 fifties and the high score of 70 not out.
The Trinidadian will play a huge role for his side in the first qualifier against Delhi Capitals. Chennai has been beaten by DC in the last four league encounters. This year they became the first team ever to beat both CSK and MI in both league games in a single season. They have now completed the hat-trick of qualifying for the Playoffs, but are yet to win the title in any of them.
Bravo currently is the third-highest wicket-taker in IPL. With Amit Mishra second on the list, Lasith Malinga it with 170 wickets against his name.
