Chris Gayle, Dwayne Bravo Slam West Indies Cricket Board For Including Kieron Pollard, Sunil Narine In The Squad For Tri-Series

Darren Sammy is the only Captain who had made it for the second time West Indies to win the T20 World Cup. Sammy and his team performance in the tournament were awesome and played really well. Though West Indies team wasn’t given support by their Board, the team won the T20 World Cup for the second time.

What’s surprising is that Darren Sammy, Chris Gayle, and Dwayne Bravo aren’t selected to the upcoming tri-series against South Africa and Australia starting from 3rd June. Instead, Sunil Narine and Kieron Pollard were selected who didn’t play 50-over match since 2014. Hence, the trio expressed their utter sense of surprise and disappointment.

Sammy, Bravo, and Gayle didn’t play Nagico Super50 which held in the month of January as they were busy in Australia playing Big Bash League. Even Narine and Pollard didn’t play as Narine was suspected and found to be illegal and Pollard suffered from the knee injury at the time. However, Narine was allowed to bowl by ICC from April.

Here are the Twitter Reactions of the Trio about their selection:

Here is how Kieron Pollard reacted to the tweets of the trio:
