'Last Seen: In Chahal's pocket': Dwayne Bravo brutally trolls ‘best friend’ Kieron Pollard on Instagram

SportsTak

We have often seen Dwayne Bravo and Kieron Pollard engaging in banter on the cricket field whether it is in Indian Premier League (IPL), Caribbean Premier League (CPL) or any other T20 tournament. Bravo took the banter to social media as he brutally trolled his countryman Pollard ahead of third ODI between West Indies and India. 

 

Bravo posted a meme which shows that Pollard is missing and he was “last seen” in Indian leg-spinner “Chahal’s pocket”. The veteran Caribbean all-rounder also wrote “if found please contact West Indies”. 

 

‘This is really a Sad day Kieron Pollard my best friend is missing guys pls [sic] if u have any info pls inbox me or report to the police,’ Bravo wrote in the caption of his Instagram post. 

 

In the comments section, Harbhajan Singh posted laughing emojis. 

 

To give some context, Pollard was dismissed by Yuzvendra Chahal for a golden duck in the first ODI of the three-ODI series. The West Indies skipper went for an expansive drive on the flighted delivery but missed the trajectory of the ball. The googly beat the bat and hit the stumps as West Indies suffered another major batting collapse. 

 

As a result, the visitors were dismissed for a below par total of 176 and were comprehensively beaten by Rohit Sharma-led India. In the second ODI, Pollard did not play due to a niggle as Nicholas Pooran led the side. Pooran did a good job as a captain to restrict India to 237/9 in the first innings but failed with the bat as he scored just nine runs from 13 deliveries in the run chase. 

 

Pollard is likely to return for the third ODI to prevent West Indies from getting clean swept. If India win the third ODI, Rohit Sharma will become the first Indian captain to clean sweep West Indies in an ODI series with three or more games.

 

West Indies have been lackluster with the bat on the tour so far. Their top order has not fired and losing wickets in cluster has prevented them from dominating India. They have not been able to play full 50 overs in both games.
