DJ Bravo

The arrival

DJ Bravo's first BBL season was 2011-12, with Sydney Sixers.

That first season brought 4 matches, 61 runs and 1 wicket.

The peak

The high point with the bat was 2015-16, for Melbourne Renegades: 201 runs at an average of 50.3, striking at 155.8 in a season when the league as a whole struck at 127.7, with 1 fifty, and a highest score of 59 not out.

With the ball, the best season was 2017-18, for Melbourne Renegades: 18 wickets at 8.09 runs an over, while the league's bowlers went for 7.43. Two seasons brought 12 wickets or more (2017-18 and 2018-19).

Club by club

2011-12, Sydney Sixers. 4 matches, 61 runs and 1 wicket.

2013-14 to 2017-18, Melbourne Renegades. 27 matches, 471 runs and 33 wickets.

2018-19, Melbourne Stars. 15 matches, 145 runs and 15 wickets.

3 spells with three clubs in all. The longest was with Melbourne Renegades, 2013-14 to 2017-18. 2012-13 is missing from the record: a season without a BBL appearance.

Bat, ball and method

Across the career, DJ Bravo struck at 129.0. The league around those same seasons, weighted by how much batting each one involved, struck at 123.8, so DJ Bravo scored about 5 runs per hundred balls faster than the typical batter of the time. 53% of the runs came in fours and sixes: 36 fours and 36 sixes.

With the ball, 49 wickets in 999 deliveries, at 7.56 runs an over against a league rate of 7.34 for the same seasons: 0.22 an over more expensive than the typical bowler of the time.

The legacy

DJ Bravo made 46 BBL appearances, the last for Melbourne Stars in 2018-19.
