West Indies Cricket Players
Dwayne Bravo
Dwayne Bravo is that creature long needed by West Indies, an allrounder. He made his Test debut at Lord's in July 2004, and took three wickets in the first innings with his medium-paced swingers. He also showed a cool enough temperament to forge a confident start at the crease, displaying a straight bat despite his team's facing a big England total of 568. His follow-ups were even better. By the end of the series, West Indies were down and out, but in Bravo, they had unearthed a special talent. He scored plenty of runs and claimed a bunch of wickets in four Tests, but nowhere was his ability more evident than in Manchester, where he top-scored for the team, and then restricted England with a six-wicket haul. He hit 107 against South Africa in April 2004-05 at Antigua to bring up his maiden century and in November 2005, scored a magnificient 113 against Australia at Hobart. Born in Santa Cruz, home of his captain, Brian Lara, he made his one-day debut on the tenth anniversary of Lara's 375 in April 1994. He has represented Trinidad & Tobago at every level since his Under-15 selection, and given his maturity and agility in the field, and his assurance with the bat, he will be one to watch.
