Port of Spain, July 28 : The West Indies
all-rounder Dwayne Bravo has dismissed reports that he sustained minor
injuries following a vehicular accident Wednesday.
The
29-year-old was reported to have been treated for damage to both hands
after his white Jaguar sports car collided with a Suzuki SUV along the
Uriah Butler Highway in south Trinidad.
"I don't know where the
reporters got their information from. There is absolutely nothing wrong
with my hands and I am fine. Yes, I got in an accident but there is
nothing wrong with me physically," said Bravo, the Windies one-day
vice-captain.
"When those reports went out, it just sent people
into a frenzy and caused a lot of panic. That was really unnecessary and
I am fine."
The collision occurred near the site where the West
Indies cricketer Runako Morton lost his life earlier this year when his
car crashed into a electricity pole.
Bravo will not be involved
in the sixth national Twenty20 trial match but Trinidad and Tobago team
manager Omar Khan said it was because of administrative issues.
"Bravo
has not taken part in any of the trial games so far because he is
awaiting final word on whether he is available to play for Trinidad and
Tobago in the upcoming Champions League," Khan noted.
