Bravo ruled out for remainder of BBL

The Melbourne Renegades club announced on Friday that West Indies all-rounder Dwayne Bravo has been ruled out for the rest of Australia's Twenty20 Big Bash League (BBL) with a hamstring injury.

Bravo suffered the injury during the Renegades loss to the Perth Scorchers on Thursday and scans have revealed a serious injury that will require surgery and a long spell on the sidelines. 

Bravo was fielding on the boundary when he made a desperate dive to cut off a shot from Michael Klinger and clutched his left hamstring in pain.

In the meantime Bravo has spoken about his injury saying "unfortunately my big bash season is over which  is very disappointing; I'll now have surgery and the rehabilitation to get me fit and playing at my best again". Bravo was in his fourth season at the Renegades after a stint with the Sydney Sixers.
