“(Chris) has not yet been invited to do a fitness test and I am sure when the Team Management is ready they will decide on him undergoing a fitness test,” Dr. Hilaire said.

Chanderpaul: I haven’t retired from any form of cricket’
Here is a link to the article... and some bits.
-an irate Chanderpaul confirms he was asked to retire from ODIs, citing poor returns over the last year
A fuming Chanderpaul confirmed yesterday afternoon, via telephone, that he was told by the selectors and coach, Ottis Gibson, that his days in coloured clothing are over, as he would not be selected to play in the upcoming ODI home series against Pakistan. He is also not sure of his place in the Test team.
“ I want to make it absolutely clear that I haven’t retired from any form of cricket,” the 36- year- old former West Indies captain vehemently stated.
“ I was told by the selectors and the coach that I would not be selected for one- day cricket, because in the opinion of the coach, I haven’t done anything during the past 12 months.”
“ They just drop me like that. The reason the coach is giving is that I didn’t do anything during the last year, yet I was ranked in the Top 10.
Another thing is that I was shuffled all over the batting order, number five, number seven and all these po sitions and they expect me to perform miracles,” he rebutted.
