Chris Gayle has found a place in West Indies' squad for their ODI series against India. Gayle, who had
announced in February that he would retire from ODIs after the World Cup,
made a U-turn during the tournament, stating that he would "definitely" play the ODI series against India. The selectors have granted him his wish.
Opening batsman
John Campbell and allrounders
Roston Chase and
Keemo Paul, meanwhile, have returned to the 14-member ODI squad. Campbell, Chase and Paul were part of West Indies' squad for the tri-series in Ireland that preceded the World Cup, but did not make the cut for the big event.
Campbell was particularly unlucky to miss out, having scored 179 in a world-record opening partnership with
Shai Hope in Dublin before sitting out the rest of the tri-series injured.
Allrounder
Andre Russell, whose World Cup ended prematurely with a knee injury, doesn't find a place either - though he is part of the T20I squad for the India series.
The ODI series will begin in Providence, Guyana, on August 8, and move to Port-of-Spain in Trinidad for the second and third ODIs on August 11 and 14.
West Indies ODI squad: Jason Holder (capt), Chris Gayle, John Campbell, Evin Lewis, Shai Hope, Shimron Hetmyer, Nicholas Pooran, Roston Chase, Fabian Allen, Carlos Brathwaite, Keemo Paul, Sheldon Cottrell, Oshane Thomas, Kemar Roach
