Injured captain replaced by Andre McCarthy

Gayle to miss Jamaica's opening game

Cricinfo staff

February 6, 2008

Chris Gayle, the West Indies and Jamaica captain, will miss Jamaica's first match of the Stanford 20/20 on February 6 against Bahamas since he is yet to recover from the injuries he picked up on West Indies' tour of South Africa.

Andre McCarthy, 20, has been named Gayle's replacement for the match. Gayle injured his thumb and hamstring during the second Test in Cape Town last month and returned home during the one-day series that followed the Tests.

Middle-order batsman Tamar Lambert has been named captain in Gayle's absence. Lambert scored his maiden first-class hundred in January when Jamaica played Guyana in the Carib Series.

Jamaica squad:
Tamar Lambert (capt), Carlton Baugh (wk), Wavell Hinds, Brendan Nash, Shawn Findlay, Danza Hyatt, Nikita Miller, Odean Brown, David Bernard jnr, Xavier Marshall, Andre Russell, Jermaine Lawson, Andre McCarthy.
