IPL 2016: Dwayne Bravo becomes first player to scalp 300 T20 wickets

Dwayne Bravo becomes first player to scalp 300 wickets in T20s. Bravo has been one of the heartening aspects of the T20 spectacle since its inception. He achieved this feat tonight in a contest against Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in Match No.3 of Indian Premier League (IPL) at IS Bindra Stadium, Mohali. Bravo bowled his most lethal delivery—slower one—that deceived and castled KXIP captain David Miller. It was Bravo’s second wicket of the match. Earlier, he knocked over superlative striker from Australia Glenn Maxwell on 2. This is Gujarat Lions’ (GL) first stint in IPL and the newcomers would be hoping from the Calypso King to continue his stellar performance in this edition of IPL as well. Live Scorecard: Kings XI Punjab vs Gujarat Lions, IPL 2016, Match 3 at Mohali
