Dwayne Bravo - Mumbai Indians Players (DLF IPL 2010)

BORN: 07 Oct 1983, Santa Cruz, Trinidad, West Indies
TEAMS: MI
BATS: RIGHT-HANDED
BOWLS: RIGHT-ARM MEDIUM FAST

When in need of some calypso magic, call Dwayne Bravo. The Trinidadian is the perfect T20 player; he can play the conservative game but turn on the heat and send the ball a long way when the need arises, can bowl with plenty of variety and is an outstanding fielder.

Bravo's batting style is a mixture of explosive hitting and composed thinking. A man for any crisis situation, his ingenuity can rescue even a lost cause. His contributions with the bat have been more than handy; he scored 178 runs in the first season and bettered it by 40 runs in the second season.

As a bowler, he is a bit of a mixed bag; he can go for runs, but will pick up key wickets as well. In simple words, one can never keep the Trinidadian out of the game, and he could possibly be Mumbai Indians' star man in the coming IPL seasons.
