Chris Gayle included in 15-man West Indies squad to face England and Ireland


Chris Gayle is set to play his first ODI in more than two years after being included in a 15-man West Indies squad to take on Ireland and England next month.

Gayle last played an ODI in the 2015 World Cup quarter-final but returned for West Indies in a Twenty20 against India last month following an improvement in player and board relations.

The big-hitting 37-year-old opener and all-rounder Marlon Samuels have both been named in a squad which will be led by Jason Holder - but Sunil Narine and Darren and Dwayne Bravo remain absent.
