All-rounder Dwayne Bravo to retire after the completion of T20 World Cup 2021.



T20 World Cup 2021: Celebrated Caribbean all-rounder Dwayne Bravo has opted to draw curtains to his international career following the completion of West Indies?s campaign in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2021.



The reigning champions of the T20 World Cup have been pushed out of the semi-final race after Sri Lanka defeated them by 20 runs, last night, in Abu Dhabi's Sheikh Zayed Stadium. West Indies will now play against Australia, this weekend, to end their forgettable campaign in the World Cup.



Bravo, after the match against Sri Lanka, said that his 18-years long international career had several ups and downs, but he is grateful to represent the entire region.



?I think the time has come,? the 38-year-old Bravo told ICC?s post-match show on Facebook. ?I?ve had a very good career . had some ups and downs, but as I look back at it, I?m very grateful to represent the region and the Caribbean people for so long.?

The champion all-rounder has mustard 1245 runs in the 90 T20Is he played for West Indies, since making his debut in 2006 against New Zealand. Moreover, he scalped 78 wickets and was quite effective with his death bowling variations.



?It wasn?t the World Cup we expected, it wasn?t the World Cup we wanted as players,? Bravo said. ?We shouldn?t feel sorry for ourselves, it was a tough competition, we should keep our heads high.?



West Indies had a poor World Cup in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), where they only managed to beat Bangladesh and were hammered by Australia, England and Sri Lanka.



Dwayne Bravo,too, is having an underwhelming World Cup run. He has just scored 16 runs from four matches and his bowling hasn?t been pleasing either, as he managed to pick two wickets.

T20 World Cup 2021: All-rounder Dwayne Bravo to retire after the completion of T20 World Cup 2021

Chris Gayle wants to wave his bat for one last time in front of his home crowd.



T20 World Cup 2021: Universe Boss left everyone bewildered with his acts inside the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium, yesterday, as he indicated his retirement from all level international games for West Indies. The Jamaican superstar with his beaming glasses on signalled that it is going to be his final World Cup assignment.



During the match between Australia and West Indies, Dwayne Bravo was set to bid adieu to the international circuit, however, Chris Gayle took everyone for a surprise as he waved his bat and even got a standing ovation from his teammates after scoring a scantly 9 balls 15.



To add more to the drama, Gayle was seen distributing his cricketing gears to the fans and also signed the camera.



The 42 years old southpaw, later, informed that he is ?semi-retired? as of now and wants to draw curtains to his international career in front of his home crowd if West Indies Cricket allows him.

</div></figure>



?I?m semi-retired. I?m one away. I was just having some fun today,? said Gayle after the match against Australia.



He further informed that it is going to be his last World Cup, though, he wants to play one more for West Indies.



?Put everything that happened aside. I was just interacting with the fans in the stands and just having some fun seeing as it?s going to be my last World Cup game. I?d love to play one more World Cup. But I don?t think they will allow me,? he added.

Chris has his final wish to play in front of the Jamaican crowd to thank them for all the support they gave him over all these years.



?It?s been a phenomenal career. I didn?t announce any retirement but they actually gave me one game in Jamaica to go in front of my home crowd, then I can say ?hey guys, thank you so much,? he wished.



?Let?s see. If not, I?ll announce it, long time and then I?ll be joining DJ Bravo in the backend and say thanks to each and everyone but I can?t say that as yet,? concluded Chris Gayle.



Christopher Henry Gayle has been at the pinnacle of his T20 game. He has ruthlessly dominated the park in the format. No ground seemed to be big enough, no bowling unit looked formidable enough to outclass the legendary Gayle in the shortest format. 



To put everything into perspective, Chris Gayle has a staggering 14321 runs in his T20 career comprising 453 matches. He has whacked a massive 22 centuries in the format, the second on the list is Michael Klinger with just 8 tons under his belt.



Moreover, the Jamaican superstar has over 7,000 runs in test cricket, 10480 runs in One Day Internationals (ODIs) and one less than 1900 runs in T20I cricket.

World Test Championship (WTC) Points Table [Updated] after AUS vs WI 2nd Test: With a humongous victory by 419 runs against West Indies in the 2nd Test, the Aussies have taken a firm hold of the top spot in the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) Points Table. The hosts showed complete dominance and registered a clean victory against the Caribbeans in the 2-match Test series.?



Despite lacking the test mainstay pacers, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood, the mighty Australians trumped West Indies in the Adelaide Test by a huge margin of 419 runs in just four days of play. With the win, Australia have maintained their record of being unbeaten in the day/night test matches. Their winning streak in the pink ball test climbs up to 11 victories.



Earlier, Australia notched up a colossal total of 511 runs in the first innings owing to the sensational knock of Marnus Labuschagne and Travis Head, who both scored over 150 individual runs.&nbsp;



Tagenarine Chanderpaul and Anderson Phillip tried to stitch a good partnership in response to a massive first innings total, however, their efforts looked scanty against the opposition bowling lineup. West Indies were bowled out at a score of 214 runs.&nbsp;



In spite of having enough runs on board, Steve Smith, stand-in skipper, decided to waive the follow-on and put in some more runs. Australia fiercely batted for the next few hours and then decided to declare the innings after scoring 199 in the third innings.?

Once again, it was West Indies? turn to bat under the lights with the pink ball doing its bit to trouble the batters. This time, the Aussie bowlers didn?t let the Caribbeans settle down and rattled through the batting lineup to blow away the entire unit in a mere 77-run score. It took Australia nearly 90 minutes on day 4 of the test for Australia to dismantle the entire West Indies innings and seal the victory.

Australia have strengthened its hold on the top position with a winning percentage of 75 and 108 rating points. South Africa stands in the second spot with a 60 winning percentage. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka held its third place followed by India, Pakistan and England.



India will have its chances to make it to the top 2 of the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) Points Table, but it would require a lion-hearted effort from the Indian men. Rohit Sharma and Co will have to win all its remaining test matches (2 against Bangladesh and 4 against Australia) in order to get through to the final of the WTC 2021-23.

The visitors are coming off a 2-1 One Day International series victory over England, while the Australians will be playing their first 50-over game since defeating India in the ODI World Cup 2023 final. The Aussies will be playing under the leadership of Steve Smith, while Shai Hope will handle the leadership duties for the Windies.

The visitors would be aiming to carry their famous Gabba Test victory in the One Day International series and would like to start a new era of West Indies Cricket by winning the ODI series against Australia.
