Chennai Super Kings has appointed Dwayne Bravo as its bowling coach for the upcoming IPL. The development comes after L Balaji opted to take a break this year due to personal issues. Bravo, who has been with CSK since its inception, has been a loyal servant to the CSK, helping them win the trophy on three occasions.
“I’m looking forward to this new journey because it’s something I see myself doing after my playing days is fully over. I enjoy working with bowlers and it’s a role I’m excited about. From player to coach, I don’t think I have to adjust much because while I’m playing, I always work with bowlers and try to come up with plans and ideas on how to have that one step ahead of the batsmen. The only difference is I will no longer be standing at mid-on or mid-off!”

He has been a crucial member of the Super Kings family for more than a decade and we are excited to continue the association.
