West Indies all-rounder Dwayne Bravo has hit out at selectors for ignoring him and several other players for the tri-series against Australia and South Africa. Bravo along with Andre Russell, Darren Sammy and Chris Gayle haven't been selected for the series, as they are no longer contracted with the West Indies Cricket Board. WI selectors have included Keiron Pollard and Sunil Narine, who had missed out from the World T20 due to injury but have ignored these stars from the champion team. "Joke of the day: WI selectors one minute Pollard & Narine were not good enough & now are perfect for Tri Nation series? It's like magic!," he tweeted.
The left-hander suffered the injury while taking a single off Sunil Narine's bowling and limped off. He struggled to run subsequently and holed out off Narine's bowling.
