2017 CPL: 5 players who can make a comeback to T20Is

#1. Darren Sammy

The two-time World T20 winning skipper is yet to play for the West Indies since last year's World T20

One of the key reasons in West Indies performing averagely in the past 10-12 months is the absence of undoubtedly the finest captain in T20 cricket, Darren Sammy. After leading West Indies to a second World T20, Sammy was dropped from the West Indies T20 side with the chairman of selectors that he did not merit a place in the T20 team.

A few months following his axing from the national team, Sammy helped Peshawar Zalmi win the Pakistan Premier League by scoring an 11-ball 28 in the final as a result of which, he was adjudged the Man of the Match.

Sammy then helped the Rajshahi Kings reach the final of the Bangladesh Premier League as he scored 276 runs with the bat at an astronomical strike rate of 174.68. Sammy is currently captaining the St. Lucia Stars in the Caribbean Premier League and while his performance with the ball has been dismal, he has done well with the bat, particularly in yesterday’s match against the Barbados Tridents where he scored a 29-ball 60.

Hence, Sammy still has a shot on returning back to national duty and if he can continue performances similar to yesterday’s, then we might see him captaining the Windies T20 team soon.
