MIAMI, Nov 19: Jamaican opening batsman Chris Gayle will captain the West Indies for their five one-day matches on their tour of Zimbabwe later this month. Gayle, who took charge of the one-day team on this year’s tour of England, replaces skipper Ramnaresh Sarwan who will miss the Zimbabwe tour due to injury, the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) said.
Brenton Parchment, Gayle’s opening batting partner for Jamaica, is set to make his debut for the West Indies after earning his first call-up in the 15-man squad.
