'Haven't retired from any format' - Gayle

Sat, Mar 21, '15

Chris Gayle is not retiring from any form of the game, but a recurring back injury will keep him out of West Indies' upcoming home Test series against England.

"Definitely want to play the T20 World Cup next year for West Indies, there's no doubt about that," Gayle told ESPNcricinfo. "I've got a few concerns and a few injury [cases] to try and solve. I'll give myself some time and hopefully look back at it and see how well I can actually progress for West Indies cricket at this point in time.

"I'm actually out of the Test series, the back won't hold up for that format at this point in time. But I haven't retired from any format as yet. As I go on I will keep informing WICB about my progress in the future with West Indies cricket."
