ST JOHN’S, Antigua (CMC) – Following his decision on Saturday to call time on his international career, veteran all-rounder Dwayne Bravo has been hailed as a “trailblazer” and one of the finest players of his era.

“Dwayne has been an outstanding cricketer of his generation who has been popular with fans the world over. He was successful in all formats and is part of an elite club of two-time World champions,” said Geoff Allardice, the acting chief executive of cricket’s world governing body, the International Cricket Council (ICC).

“His versatility and the experience of playing the world over have helped him gain immense understanding of the game and I hope he will be able to find ways to stay involved in cricket. On behalf of the ICC, I wish him all the best for the future,” he continued.

Cricket West Indies also praised Bravo’s contribution to the game, pointing out the Trinidadian has evolved so much and has become “one of the world’s leading white-ball death bowlers and a valuable mentor for the next generation of West Indies players.”
