Bravo was the leading run-scorer in the 2023 Super50 Cup, where he captained Trinidad & Tobago to the title. As a No. 3 batter, he scored 416 runs in the tournament at an average of 83.20 and a strike rate of 92.03.

"I've taken some time to ponder what's my next step moving forward as a cricketer. At this point in my career, it's not easy or should I say it takes a lot to continue to find the energy, the passion, commitment and discipline to be able to perform to the best of my ability and put myself in a position to make my return to international cricket. Without any level of communication I've been left in a very dark place," wrote Bravo in his statement on Instagram.

"I'm not giving up but I believe it's best to step away just for a bit and maybe make some room for a young and upcoming talent," he added.
