Bad Idea need it at international level. Its the one thing Pakistan kick ass at. Don't take that away from them aswell

So Gayle may never play International cricket again. What a shame.

West Indies news: Chris Gayle's West Indies future in doubt after heated meeting with WICB | Cricket News | West Indies v India | ESPN Cricinfo

In the three-hour meeting, tempers had flared, with a WICB source alleging that Dinanath Ramnarine, the president of the West Indies Players Association, lifted his chair and threatened to assault the board CEO Ernest Hilaire.

Lol.

Pakistan have been woeful at T20I for sometime now. Only ass that Pakistan kicks these days unfortunately belongs to Pakistan itself.

Lol.

WICB seems determined to show up the PCB. But I highly doubt this the end of Gayle - he's too good a player for the board to ignore him for long.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

It's absolutely pathetic tho. Such a childish spat. How can these people be in charge of running West Indies cricket? Ridiculous.

I am pretty sure he will be back for the test series.

If you are talking about the Ind-WI test series, then its a big NO for him.

[mohit_dude10]

They should've never tried to rival IPL, after all not every board is as rich as BCCI to cover up its losses.

New Zealand news: New Zealand to name captain today | New Zealand Cricket News | ESPN Cricinfo

New NZ captain to be named today. It'll either be Taylor or McCullum, although Taylor already looks set to take over.

Cricket: Taylor set to be named captain - Sport - NZ Herald News

It was pretty obvious they would choose Taylor as captain. If they had McCullum in mind, they would have got him to captain when Vettori was injured at the WC.

 

[Chewie]

My cricinfo commentator friend's going to be at the press conference

Yea I'd think Taylor would get the nod

 

[Iridium]

It's at 3pm so not long now. I think Taylor is the right choice. McCullum said in his 60 Minutes interview that he wouldn't be too fussed if he didn't get it. Maybe he still as bad memories of captaincy from his KKR days.
