The Jamaican trio of Chris Gayle, Marlon Samuels
and Darren Powell have been included in the West
Indies team to compete in the first ever ICC/Twenty
20 World Cup which bowls off in South Africa on
September 11.
West Indies, who now rank seventh in the one day
version is drawn in group A' of the Competition and
will open their account against hosts South Africa on
September 11 at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg.
Both teams have never met in this format of the game
before, and the only recent limited overs clash between them
was back in the ICC/World Cup in the Caribbean in April, where
the South Africans defeated the Caribbean side by 67 runs at
St. Georges, in Grenada.
Each group consists of three teams and the Ramnaresh Sarwan
led side will face minnows Bangladesh on September 13 in
their second game.
