Chennai Super Kings (CSK) superstar and one of the biggest match winners of all time, Dwayne Bravo forms part of the BBL’s overseas draft. He has previous experience playing in the Big Bash League.

He has picked 49 wickets and scored 677 runs across 45 innings in the tournament. The all-rounder was previously associated with the Melbourne Renegades.

Overall, the veteran has played 542 T20s with 6,831 runs and 596 wickets. The West Indies superstar has won as many as 16 T20 titles in his illustrious career. At 38, he still seems to have a couple of years of T20 cricket left in him.
