Bravo took 14 wickets in 11 matches for Chennai.This was after the disappointment of the 2020 season.

The MS Dhoni-led side won the trophy in Dubai for the fourth time in IPL history.He termed winning the trophy in IPL 2021 as a ‘special season’ as the team was motivated to do well after finishing seventh in the previous season.

In the IPL 2021 season, Bravo was the second highest wicket-taker for Chennai with 14 wickets in 11 matches as the MS Dhoni-led side overcame the disappointment of 2020 season to win the trophy in Dubai for the fourth time in the history of IPL.

“It was a special season because the season before, we came seventh and it was the first time CSK did not qualify (for playoffs) in the history of IPL.All of us players wanted to prove to the fans and ourselves that we were better than last season.Even though they called us the granddads of the IPL last season, we proved them wrong and made history again.

I am very happy to be a part of the legacy of Chennai Super Kings, one of the most successful IPL franchise ever,” said Bravo in an exclusive chat with IANS, organised by 3 Big Dogs PTe Ltd and DNH media on launch of his ‘Djb47 Fashion Label’.

Bravo heaped praise on Dhoni, revealing that he allows everyone in the team to be themselves.It’s not secret that Dhoni is one of the greatest players to ever play the game.He was the one who built Chennai Super Kings and the culture.

We as players are proud to have played under his leadership.He doesn’t get involved in off-field stuff He is laid back, allows people to be themselves, and accepts that everyone is different.

He allowed it to make Chennai Super Kings the team and franchise they are today, when they welcome people from all cultures and backgrounds.MS makes it clear that they want them to be themselves.That’s very unique and everyone shares that bond.”

Bravo won CPL 2021 in St Kitts & Nevis Patriots, and IPL 2021 in Chennai Super Kings.However, he couldn’t win the hat-trick in T20 titles in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup.This was also his last international cricket match.Entering as defending champions, West Indies crashed out in the Super 12 stage, winning only once against Bangladesh by three runs.

Asked on what went wrong for the two-time champions in the mega event, Bravo refused to pinpoint reasons behind it.

” We just didn’t have an enjoyable World Cup.It’s difficult to pinpoint the main problem areas.It didn’t work for us as a group.It’s all history and we can’t change that.I don’t what was the reason why we didn’t do well but it has happened,” he told IANS.

Bravo signed off by saying that players have to take things as they are in a cramped cricket schedule.”That’s the reality in sports right now.It’s a tight schedule.It’s a big business.The English Premiership (League) is an example of this.It runs for eight months.The NBA runs for about four and a quarter to five months.This is the schedule for professional athletes.It’s hard but it is what it really is.”
