Former West Indies captain Chris Gayle hopes to return to test cricket next year after a two-year absence.

The 36-year-old Gayle told reporters on Tuesday in Australia where he is playing in the Twenty20 Big Bash League that he hopes to be injury free and able to bolster a struggling West Indies lineup in 2016.

Gayle said “There’s no way I could have actually been part of that test team, I’m just coming back from injury. Next year hopefully test cricket is on the agenda.”
