Bravo, who represented the West Indies in 164 One-Day Internationals (ODIs), added that it ended many careers but expressed his happiness over Dave Cameron’s six-year reign coming to an end. In March 2019, former West Indies team manager Ricky Skerritt was appointed as the new president of Cricket West Indies replacing Dave Cameron at the role.

Talking about the same, as per the quotes in guardian.co.tt, Bravo said, “West Indies cricket has suffered at the hands of vindictive people who were bent on keeping certain people away from the team, ending many careers. However, there is a God and every rope has an end. The longest rope in the world has an end and it is good to see.”

After announcing his retirement, all-rounder Dwayne Bravo was included in the list of reserve players for the 2019 ICC World Cup. He played his last international appearance in a Twenty20 (T20) match against Pakistan in Abu Dhabi, 2017.
