West Indies pick strong squad for Australia Tour


West Indies pick strong squad for Australia Tour

By on Tuesday, 3rd November 2009

Chris Gayle leads a strong West Indies Team to AustraliaThe crisis between the senior West Indian Players and their Board seems to have been solved finally as the Selectors picked a strong Test squad for the upcoming Australia Tour. Jamaican Chris Gayle returns back to Captaincy and so do the big players like Ramnaresh Sarwan, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Dwayne Bravo, Denesh Ramdin, Jerome Taylor and others.

The West Indies Squad has a couple of exciting new names in Adrian Bharath and fast bowler Kemar Roach. Adrian Bharath from Trinidad and Tobago played in a sensational fashion in the recent Champions League T20 in India. He showed enough flashes of his brilliant batting to earn a place in the West Indies team. Kemar Roach on the other hand has been in the West Indies team which was weakened by the players boycott. Roach created jitters in the Champions Trophy in South Africa by clocking consistently around 150 kmph.

The 3-Test Series in Australia begins from the 26th of this month. Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth will be hosting those three Tests.

West Indies Test Squad for Australia : Chris Gayle (Captain), Adrian Barath, Ramnaresh Sarwan, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Denesh Ramdin (Wicket Keeper), Sulieman Benn, Dwayne Bravo, , Narsingh Deonarine, Travis Dowlin, Brendan Nash, Ravi Rampaul, Kemar Roach, Darren Sammy, Jerome Taylor and Gavin Tonge
