Explosive opening batsman of the West Indies team Chris Gayle is confident that his team would be producing a good performance in the ICC World Cup, which is scheduled to be held in Australia and New Zealand.
The West Indies, which is current playing the three-match T20 series with South Africa, had a termendous start to the shortest version of the game after losing the Test series. And now the Windies players have already trained their eyes on the World Cup.
“With the World Cup right around the corner, you need momentum leading up to the World Cup. I know its T20 but there are five important ODIs against South Africa and if we can actually gain a lot of momentum going up the World Cup, it will give us more confidence. It will be important for us to cash in on this ODI series,” Gayle was quoted as saying the media.
“Hopefully we can build on this momentum and go forward. What would actually be better for us is if we win this T20 series which would give us a boost going into the ODIs. We’re looking forward to it and I know the guys are happy to get a win here in South Africa,” he added.
