My MAN DARREN BRAVO brings up his ton.

This kid is SPECIAL. Watch out for him, cant wait to the Windies next come to Aus he is going to be awesome.

Before this innings he was averaging 43.05 in a side that is terrible.

In his first 21 innings at test level he has hit 6-50's and 2-100's not a bad start.

Windies all out 463
India win by innings and 15 runs.
Pathetic first innings cost them dearly, the pitch was a road.
Have to get Brod onto it but is that some sort of record to make 463 and still lose by an innings?

The Trinidadian duo - top-order batsman Jason Mohammed and unconventional spinner Sunil Narine - were the new faces in West Indies' 15-man squad for the five-match ODI series in India. Legspinner Devendra Bishoo and fast bowler Fidel Edwards were the notable omissions from the side.

Darren Sammy will lead West Indies in the series, which kicks off on November 30 in Cuttack. Chris Gayle continued to miss out on selection, while Dwayne Bravo, who was dropped on form for the Bangladesh tour, was also left out.

Squad: Darren Sammy (capt), Adrian Barath, Darren Bravo, Danza Hyatt, Anthony Martin, Jason Mohammed, Sunil Narine, Kieron Pollard, Kieran Powell, Denesh Ramdin (wk), Ravi Rampaul, Kemar Roach, Andre Russell, Marlon Samuels, Lendl Simmons

Yuvraj Singh has been replaced by Rohit Sharma in the India squad for the third and final Test against West Indies. The rest of the squad is unchanged. Yuvraj was unable to convert his starts in the Delhi and Kolkata Tests against West Indies, managing 23, 18 and 25 in three innings. Rohit made a match-winning 175 against Railways and followed that up with 100 against Rajasthan in Mumbai's first two games of the ongoing Ranji Trophy season.

I have been telling anyone who will lesson BRAVO IS SERIOUS GUN!!!

He will be the next Brian Lara if not better.

Cant wait to this bloke comes to Aus

With Bravo and Kirky Edwards the Windies are starting to establish a decent batting attack.

Huge call i know, this kid is that good though, by the end of next year i reckon he will be in the best 5 batsmen in the world.

[Pup]

I also rate him really highly. Really good to watch.

Whufc just relax a bit though please. Can't compare him to Lara yet.

His know where near Lara yet but in all fairness to the bloke Bravo has played 23 test match innings at the same stage

Lara
-23 innnings
-1158 runs
-2 100's
-7 50's
-50.34 Ave
Bravo
-23 innings
-1107 runs
-3 100's
-6 50's
-52.71 Ave

Not alot of difference there, throw in the fact Lara was in a decent side compared to Bravo and the comparisons are closer than may seem.

Out of the first 23 innings Lara batted 13 times in the West Indies while Bravo has only batted 10 times on home soil.

I HAVE A HUGE MAN CRUSH ON BRAVO!!
