WE may not have seen the end of Chris Gayle in whites with the West Indies batsman hopeful to make a return to Test cricket next year.

Gayle played the last of his 103 Tests in July 2014 and said he was not fit enough to play the ongoing series in Australia.

The 36-year-old will play for Melbourne Renegades in the Big Bash having recently made a return to competitive cricket in the Bangladesh Premier League.

Gayle said: “I’m just trying to get back into the groove. Next year, hopefully Test cricket is on the agenda.

“I haven’t batted for such a long time. I scored 92 in a game and the next day felt like I’d been hit by a bus. The body will actually take time to build up gradually.”
