Gayle still in limbo

INTERNET, Bridgetown
Beleaguered opener Chris Gayle has admitted he is unsure about his future in West Indies cricket.
The formerWindies captain, who has been ignored by selectors ever since his return from the Indian Premier League in April, says he has heard nothing from selectors with the Test and one-day squad set to be announced shortly for the imminent tour of Bangladesh.
A West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) release this week said players selected for the Bangladesh tour had been invited to the training camp held here at the High Performance Centre to prepare alongside the Twenty20 squad which head to England next week for a two-match series.
Gayle said he had not been informed about the camp.
“I am available whenever I am needed. I have pointed out to them (WICB) that I am available for West Indies cricket. There is a camp (going on) but nothing has been said to me,” Gayle said during a television interview in Jamaica this week.
No team has been announced yet for the tour of Bangladesh which includes one T\venty20, three One-Day Internationals and two Tests from Oct 7 to Nov 2.
Gayle is currently in India, where he will turn out for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Champions League TVventy20, set to start Monday and end Oct 9.
The giant left-hander has been involved in an impasse with the WICB over comments he made in a highly charged interview with a Jamaica radio station back in April.
At the time, the Board indicated that Gayle would have to explain his comments before he could be considered for selection for the series against India in June/July, but a June meeting in Jamaica involving Gayle, WICB and West Indies Players Association officials, failed to resolve the matter.
Gayle said he had since met privately with WICB chief executive Ernest Hilaire last month in Antigua and ironed out the issue.
“It was a good productive meeting. Myself and the CEO actually together sat down and had a fair and frank discussion with each other,” Gayle said.
“He pointed out...the problems he had with me which we actually sorted out."
Gayle claims he was told by Hilaire follow-
ing the meeting that he would be contacted by coach Ottis Gibson and chairman of selectors Clyde Butts.
In a subsequent telephone call, Gayle said Gibson had asked him to publicly retract comments he had made during the radio interview, but he reiterated to the Windies coach that he was standing by what he had said.
'Then he (Gibson) said basically he would actually write a report on what our conversation was, send it to the CEO and eventually they will get back to me after that,' Gayle explained.
“That's the last time I had a conversation with any particular one from the Board and that is how things have played out at this point in time.”
Despite the cloud of uncertainty surrounding Gayle's career, the hard-hitting batsman said he had no immediate plans on quitting the sport, and becoming a Tventy20 specialist.
"I don't reach the stage of retiringyet. I still have a lot of cricket to play, internationally as well,” he stressed.
