Chris Gayle is set to meet with the West Indies Cricket Board and head coach Ottis Gibson in an attempt to end the impasse that has kept the big-hitting batsman out of the national team for nearly a year.
Sources say the meeting involves the former West Indies captain at an undisclosed time and place and has been facilitated by the prime minister of St. Vincent & the Grenadines, Dr. Ralph Gonsalves, and other Caribbean heads of state.
The 32-year-old Gayle's last match for West Indies was the World Cup quarterfinal on March 23, 2011.
The WICB precluded the Jamaican from selection following his remarks in a radio interview last April.
After being omitted from the series against Pakistan last April due to fitness concerns, he accused the WICB of "using the fitness thing to threaten players."
