All-rounders Brathwaite, Russell retained by Tallawahs
All-rounder Carlos Brathwaite.
BROOKLYN, NY – Former West Indies Twenty20 captain Carlos Brathwaite is one of seven players retained by Jamaica Tallawahs for the upcoming Caribbean Premier League campaign.
The 32-year-old, who has lost his place in the international side and has not featured in nearly two years, struggled in last year’s CPL with 60 runs from nine innings while taking ten wickets with his medium pace.
However, Brathwaite flourished in the last Australian Big Bash, snaring 16 wickets from as many matches, and remains a potent player in the shortest format.
The Barbadian will be joined by West Indies superstar Andre Russell, one of the most sought-after players in franchise cricket.
