Bravo brothers hope to create history in Sri Lanka tour

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.

Darren's older brother Dwayne Bravo, who will also be in the West Indies squad to tour Sri Lanka, says he is looking forward to making history with his sibling.

"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.

The West Indies will play three tests, five one day internationals and one 20/20 match in Sri Lanka.

The first test begins on November 16.
