Teammates that play together stay together. For Dwayne Bravo, the family feeling is a given, considering the effort the Chennai IPL team put in together, for days on end.
Still riding high on their win last month, Bravo says the team’s bonhomie is beyond just the field or the dressing room.
“I am close to a lot of players like Suresh Raina and MS Dhoni. We call each other ‘brother’. His [Dhoni’s] wife Sakshi and I also call each other brother and sister,” the cricketer-turned-part-time- DJ says.

In fact, the West Indian cricketer often has them over for dinner at his home in Trinidad too, perhaps laying future plans on how best to eat up the competition.

The 37-year-old Dhoni is the second Indian cricketer after Kapil Dev to receive this honour. As his name was announced, Dhoni, attired in Territorial Army uniform, smartly marched past the dignitaries present at the Rashtrapati Bhavan to receive the citation from President Ram Nath Kovind.
The Indian Territorial Army had conferred the honorary rank of Lieutenant Colonel to Dhoni on November 1, 2011, months after the country lifted its second World Cup under his leadership.
