He was the first player for the West Indies to hit four consecutive sixes in a T20I match.[5]
In August 2016, Brathwaite was named the captain of the West Indies team for their Twenty20 International matches against India in Florida later that month.[6]

In October 2018, Cricket West Indies (CWI) awarded him a white-ball contract for the 2018–19 season.[17][18] Later the same month, he was named in the squad for the Khulna Titans team, following the draft for the 2018–19 Bangladesh Premier League.[19]
In December 2018, he was bought by the Kolkata Knight Riders in the player auction for the 2019 Indian Premier League.[20][21] In October 2019, he was named as the captain of the Combined Campuses team for the 2019–20 Regional Super50 tournament.[22] He was released by the Kolkata Knight Riders ahead of the 2020 IPL auction.[23] In July 2020, he was named in the Jamaica Tallawahs squad for the 2020 Caribbean Premier League.[24][25]
