Dwayne Bravo: IPL is the toughest league in the world. It works on some days and on some days it does not. My pride and my love for this game have kept me going. Virat's wicket was very important and Bangalore is a big side. I just wanted to keep it simple. As I said. preparation is the key for me. I practice in the nets, keep myself fit and healthy and use my experience to come up in such situations. That gets the batsmen to think where it will go. Experience will always get us through in this franchise. The message from the coach in the dressing room is always that we might not be the quickest but we will get the job done. We need to stay safe from the over rates fine as well.
