Summary
West Indies' top players will make themselves available for the summer tour to Australia, despite their ongoing dispute with cricket administrators, local media quoted all-rounder Dwayne Bravo as saying. We are all going to make ourselves available, that is definite, Bravo told Tuesday's Age newspaper. We are looking forward to getting back playing international cricket. Top West Indies players, including Bravo and former skipper Chris Gayle, refused to play in a losing two-match test series at home against Bangladesh in July due to a dispute over contracts and payments. Although the players ended their boycott after the series, the West Indies Cricket Board has stuck to its guns, sticking with a weaker back-up squad for a one-day international series against Bangladesh and for the ICC Champions Trophy tournament that ended on Monday.
