West Indies miss the comedian in Dwayne Bravo

It has been a week since all-rounder Dwayne Bravo flew home after injuring his knee in the West Indies' opening 2011 World Cup game against South Africa but his absence is still being felt in the dressing room.

Apart from being a key player, Bravo was also known to perk up the dressing room with his exceptional sense of humour.

In a dinner recently, skipper Darren Sammy reportedly said that in Bravo they have lost two players - a batsman and a bowler besides a fantastic comedian.

Bravo was in Sammy's thoughts even in the press conference on Thursday on the eve of their match againt Ireland.

"We all are in contact with Dwayne. His surgery went quite well. He also checks upon us. He is an inspiration on the field," he said.
