West Indies opening batsman Chris Gayle has officiallyreversed his decision to retire from one-day internationals and been named inthe 14-man squad for next month`s three-match series against India.
The recent World Cup was supposed to be Gayle`s swansong,but he indicated during the tournament he would play on with an eye to breakingBrian Lara`s record for the most runs by a West Indies player in ODIs. He is 12short of Lara`s mark of 10,405 runs.
The 39-year-old Gayle had a disappointing World Cup, withjust two half-centuries in eight innings, but retains the faith of theselectors.
