Gayle is West Indies' One Day Captain |
June 15, 2007
 Chris
Gayle as expected has been named as the Captain
of the West Indies One Day Team. There is no
place for Daren Ganga, the Test Captain although
it is learnt that this was against the Board's
wish. The Board wanted Daren Ganga to be the
Captain for the One Dayers but the Selectors
have thought otherwise. Gayle has so far
captained the West Indies in a One Day
International against India before the World
Cup.
In the 14-man squad, two
important names are missing that of pacers
Jerome Taylor and Corey Collymore. Lendl
Simmons, Dwayne Smith and newbie batsman Austin
Richards from Antigua are the three players who
will be joining for the One Dayers. Daren Ganga
and Sylvester Joseph are the two batsmen
returning home after the fourth test along with
Collymore and Taylor. West Indies will be
playing two Twenty20 matches along with five
ODIs against England which is followed with a
Quadrangular Series in Ireland with the other
three teams being the hosts Ireland, Netherlands
and Scotland.
