Whycliffe Dave Cameron, the president of the West Indies Cricket Board, says he expects the selectors to pick the best team “based on eligibility” for the upcoming two-match Twenty20 (T20) International series versus India in Florida, United States.

It was confirmed yesterday that reigning world champions West Indies and 2016 semi-finalists India are scheduled to play on August 27 and 28 at Central Broward Regional Park in Lauderhill.

West Indies, who are the only team to twice lift the World T20 title, are a powerhouse in the game’s shortest format.

But while they generally field their biggest stars in the shortest format, due to varying reasons — including numerous public disputes with the board – a lot of those players have not represented the Test team in recent times.

“The team is always selected by our selectors and our selectors pick the best teams that are available based on eligibility,” Cameron said at yesterday’s press conference at Sabina Park when asked about the quality of the T20 side to take on the Indians.

Well, given that players have to play the CPL to be eligible for selection, I don't expect any players deserving of selection to be omitted....

"If it was up to me, Gayle would Not be in the team" Hilaire, circa 2011.

"Having said Gayle should not be on the team and looking at the manner in which the issue has been handled by Hilaire, how can anybody believe he was not a man on a mission?"

Where were you when Hilaire was acting like the de facto president and making public proclamations about which players should or should not be in the team?

Do you recall his nonsensical "Star Team versus Team of Stars" statement?

Cameron was an integral part of that regime. Nothing Has Changed!
