2) Brathwaite can bowl
After his game-changing T20 World Cup winning knock against England, many people saw him as a batsman who could power his team to another level with his brute strength with the bat. However, what many seemed to have neglected was that he is a decent bowler who actually took 3 wickets in that very final.
In the IPL, he might not have made the impact he or his team had hoped for, but he hasn’t been a pushover either.
Against SRH, he bowled 4 overs to take 2 wickets while giving away only 27 runs in the process. His tight bowling was the main catalyst for SRH’s middle order's demise.
