'MS Dhoni has more faith in me than my own board and selectors': Dwayne Bravo on special bond with CSK skipper

Though the Indian Premier League (IPL) has been postponed until further notice, players are keeping in contact with each other through social media.

However, there are some players who have bonded over the years. Such a bond is between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper MS Dhoni and West Indies cricketer Dwayne Bravo.

The Windies player admitted that the Dhoni has more faith in him than his own board.

“I’ve asked myself many times, why someone like MS has so much faith in me. My own board and selectors don’t have the same faith. But Mahi respects my talent and the way I play the game. That means a lot to me because this is arguably the greatest captain in the world and he has so much faith,” Bravo said while chatting with Harsha Bhogle on Cricbuzz. 

Bravo is composing a new song as a tribute for the former Indian captain and said that he wanted to do something special for his CSK captain. 

The bowler also said that the song is not yet over but confirmed it would be out soon.

“I want to do something for him. He is coming to the end of his career. He had a great career. He had a great impact on my personal career and also so many other cricketers,” he said.

“I wanted to do something special for him. I named the song No. 7. It’s his number. It’s a special number for him.”

As for Bravo, he has been an integral part of the CSK since joining the franchise in 2011.
