THE TRINIDAD and Tobago Cricket Board (TTCB) has congratulated Dwayne Bravo on being awarded the Humming Bird Medal (Gold) by the Government of Trinidad and Tobago for his outstanding contribution to the game of cricket.

The 31-year-old, who is from Santa Cruz, is a world class all-round cricketer whose talent is sought after by cricket franchises in the T20 format all around the world where his exuberant style of play has characterised Trinidad and Tobago cricket.

Earlier this year Bravo led T&T’s Red Steel cricket team to victory in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) regional T20 tournament from last place, to lift the championship crown in the semi-final play-offs and final in front of his home crowd at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port-of-Spain.

On Monday, president of the TTCB Azim Bassarath said that the national honour given to Bravo is well-deserved and will help to motivate other young cricketers to work hard and establish themselves much like he has done over the years.

Is this because he bangs more girls than Ronaldo, or for any alleged exploits on the cricket field?

In Trinidad we give medals of honour to the village ram...

Kudos to Dwayne Bravo!

The government of Jamaica should follow suit and award Marlon Samuels & Chris Gayle the Order of Distinction, just to piss of some obsessive detractors!

Banana Plantation - dats all!

Awarding a student with pass in 10 CSE subjects would have been better

It could have been worse; they could have named Bravo ambassador for contributing nothing more than "intangibles" on the cricket field!

Bravo has a very good agent.
