A face-off against Bravo the bowler can become a sideshow between these two Caribbean all-rounders.

SABRE RATTLING: When CSK faces MI CSK in Qualifier 1, the joust between Dwayne Bravo and Kieron Pollard might set the stands on fire.

Dwayne Bravo brings more value to Chennai Super Kings than just wickets. The Purple Cap holder, with 20 victims in IPL 2015, also has 12 catches in 14 league matches.

Multi-tasking comes easy for the imposing West Indian. The team’s death overs specialist is also a free-spirited batsman, capable of stunning shots.

The Wankhede stadium is a familiar place for the all-rounder who wore Mumbai Indians colours for three seasons before moving to CSK.

Kieron Pollard, also from the West Indies, is making an impact as a batting all-rounder this season, slogging 25 fours and 20 sixes in the league stage for 342 runs so far, apart from nine catches and three wickets. MI turned to him for last over heroics against Knight Riders.
