Dwayne Bravo talked about his plans after coming out of retirement:

Bravo spoke about the new management, saying that “they understand and listen,” which made it easy for him to make a decision to come back and represent his country once again.

“If Russell is back, myself, and Narine is back… We don’t know what the Universe Boss is doing but you never know, he can also be available. We will love to have him around as he’s a father figure for all of us and we respect him. Having a Chris Gayle in the team is always special, but it’s up to him to make his decision. But, like I said, we’re looking forward to put the squad together. Whenever we put an XI on the field, it will be an XI that people will come to watch.” Bravo said.

West Indies will play their next T20I series against Ireland in January next year.
