WI Key Player Following his exclusion from the forthcoming ODI series against England, the batter has made the decision to take a hiatus from international cricket.
Darren Bravo announced on social media that he was giving up on being selected for the West Indies. February 2022 was the last time the left-handed hitter played for an international team.
Bravo played 200 games as a West Indian representative during the course of a 14-year international career. In 3538 Test runs, he has scored eight hundreds and an average of 36.47. ODI runs 3109.His average in One-Day Internationals is almost thirty runs per game, with four century.
With four hundred and sixteen runs at an average of 83.2 and a strike rate of 92.0 in the recently concluded Super50 Cup 2023, a domestic List A competition in the West Indies, he was truly prolific. He notched three fifty-score runs and a century.
The selection panel decided to give the younger players a chance in order to prepare them for the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup in 2027, so despite the batter’s performances, he did not get picked for the England series.
Bravo wrote, “I’ve taken some time to think about and wonder what my next move as a cricketer is.” “It takes a lot of work, energy, passion, dedication, and discipline to be able to perform to the best of my ability and put myself in a position to make my return to international cricket at this point in my career.
“I’m not giving up, but I think it’s best to take a temporary break and possibly make room for a new, up-and-coming talent.” Finally, I would like to wish everyone the very best.
Starting on December 3, West Indies and England will play a home white-ball series that consists of three ODIs and five T20Is.
