Trinbago Knight Riders retire DJ Bravo's No. 47 jersey in historic CPL first
Trinbago Knight Riders retired DJ Bravo's No. 47 jersey, the first such honour in CPL history.
Trinbago Knight Riders have retired DJ Bravo's No. 47 jersey, making him the first CPL player to receive this honour. Bravo won four titles with the franchise, including two as captain. The ceremony marks a historic moment for the Caribbean Premier League.
Bravo served as both player and later head coach for TKR during his association with the franchise. He claimed 129 wickets across his CPL career with the team. The franchise has won six titles in total during Bravo's involvement.
No other player has previously had their number retired by a CPL franchise. Bravo continues his association with TKR in a coaching capacity after winning five titles during his career.

The jersey retirement recognises Bravo's dual contribution as both player and coach, establishing a precedent for how franchise cricket honours its most influential figures. This development may influence how other T20 leagues approach similar tributes to their foundational players.
