Speaking about MS Dhoni, Bravo claimed as per CSK website, “As a leader, he is one of the best that has every played the game, he allows players to express themselves, allows them to learn from their mistakes. He’s very cool, very calm and that’s very good.”

Bravo also credited Dhoni for his death-over bowling development as he quoted, “He has shown a lot of faith in me, the trust. For me, it’s all about preparation. I always like bowling to MS in the end (in practice sessions) as he is one of the best finishers in the game and I challenge myself by bowling to him. I always give him a scenario, sometimes I win and sometimes he wins.”

The 34-years old all-rounder further added, “These kinds of games, they really get me going.”

He also pointed out that the starting point is very important for any team in an IPL season. He told, “The start (to a season) is very important, especially in a tournament like the IPL where all the teams are very, very good. It’s a tournament where anything is possible and so you want to start well. It gives you that momentum. It can get a little difficult for teams to recover later on in the tournament.
