KINGSTON, Jamaica – Opener Chris Gayle is expressing confidence that he will be fit and ready in time to be considered for the West Indies’ upcoming Test series against India.

Gayle, who has been nursing a lower back injury in recent times, was last week left out of the West Indies one-day squad for their tour of the Asian country.
The Test series, however, which features three matches, is set to follow the five-match one-day series, which is set to bowl off on October 8.
“My recovery has been coming on nicely, and I expect to be fully fit and ready in time for the Test series,” said Gayle.
“The injury is the same one that has been affecting my back in recent times, but so far it has been coming on well,” added Gayle. “I have been able to give it some rest and as each day progresses, it keeps getting better and better.”
