West Indies limited-overs captain Kieran Pollard is banking on his big hitters to deliver in the five-match T20 series against South Africa which bowls off today from 2pm.
A number of veteran players are included in the West Indies 13-man squad for the first two matches of the series to bolster the host’s chances of a series win.
Among those is their leading run-scorer in the format, Chris Gayle.
The 41-year-old has a strike rate of 140 to go along with his two centuries and 13 fifties.
