Young Trinidadian batsman Darren Bravo says he will be looking to emulate fellow countryman Adrian Barath when he makes his first senior tour with the West Indies to Sri Lanka next month.
Barath, 20, scored a debut test century when he toured Australia with the West Indies late last year, and Bravo, 21, says this a platform for him to follow.
"I was rally happy for him when he got his test 100 against Australia. I know it wasn't easy but I want to follow in his footsteps," he said.
"I can't remember how long two brothers have represented the West Indies but hopefully Dwayne and I can create some sort of history when I make my test debut which would be something meaningful to both of us and our families," Darren Bravo said.

Will this be history? Any other brothers represent WI at the same time?

Biggie claims he has been the one to make significant changes in West Indies Cricket ,since that dot
director tells Pullo all the secrets .
Since Biggie hates Titties ,did one horn him or stole his woman ??? hmmmmmm !!!!
Biggie might veto playing two T&T brothers on the same team in a test .

Of course, there were the Samuels brothers from Jamaica, Robert and Marlon, but they played at different times. I think the Christiani brothers (were they from Guyana?) played at the same time for the West Indies, and what about Inshan Ali and Imtiaz Ali from trinidad?
Funny, but while Darren Bravo has made a great start, and has cemented his place in the side, Dwayne's place seems to be under threat after some poor returns with both bat and ball. He didn't particularly set the world alight in the home series against the Saffers, either....
