Dwayne Bravo, the two-time T20I World Champion, on Tuesday announced that today's match against Pakistan in Guyana will be his last international match on home soil.
Bravo made the disclosure to his teammates in the team huddle and via Cricket West Indies (CWI) social media ahead of the start of the fourth and final T20I at the Guyana National Stadium.
"I just want to take this opportunity to wish one of our stalwarts. In all three formats, he has played though he retired from the other two a long time back. But Bravo is playing his final game in Maroon on the Caribbean soil. We look forward to that," Kieron Pollard said in a video posted on Windies Cricket.
According to CWI, Bravo has been a lion-hearted competitor for West Indies from the very start of his career. The highlights of his T20I career are the two World Cup wins - in 2012 on his birthday against Sri Lanka in Colombo, and in 2016 against England in Kolkata.
