Out of favour Windies batsman, Darren Bravo has admitted an authoritative start to the Colonial Insurance Super50 was a relief after struggling at find form in recent months.
Bravo cracked an unbeaten 115 off 127 balls, anchoring the Trinidad and Tobago Red Force in an eight-wickets win over the Windward Island Volcanoes. The middle-order batsman was ably partnered by Jeremy Solozano who also got to the century mark, scoring 102 from 118 balls.
In an impressive knock, Bravo sent the ball racing to the boundary on five occasions and cleared the rope eight times. It was a welcome sight for the out of form batsman, who was dropped from the West Indies squad after failing to make any significant or consistent impact at the crease for the past several months.
“I think this innings went a long way for me,” Bravo said following the match.
“I just needed to back myself in the best possible way. I know as long as I spent time out in the middle things were going to get easier and that is what I did.”
Bravo who received man-of-the-match honours insisted that patience and communication had been key in the record stand with Solozano.
