But is Darren playing against England?

As for Narine, well, let's see how that pans out....

"I'm not sure what the board can do because he's not contracted to the board," Gibson told reporters in the West Indies. "He's got a situation that is going to set him up very nicely and as much as we would like to have him playing, six months ago Narine was not in our thoughts. We need to be a little bit careful in how we deal with that situation and that's what we're doing at the moment. There's conversations going on behind the scenes."

The decision Narine needs to make should be his and his alone - in other words what is in his best interest.

Second that! This could be a one off shot for making money to get some security financially for his family.

"Of those engaged in the ODIs and Twenty20s against Australia, Dwayne Bravo and Pollard return for their fourth season in the IPL today. Russell, Samuels and Sunil Narine join them for the first time. Chris Gayle has already informed the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) that, while he has signed the agreement ending their year-long standoff that kept him out of the team, he intends to see out his contract with the Bangalore franchise. Whether or not they would have been chosen for the Aussie Tests (Narine decidedly yes, likewise Gayle; Bravo and Russell probably not, given that Sammy fills the position they would otherwise take), their absence decidedly weakens the overall squad. Nor can young professionals be berated for accepting the lucrative contracts on offer (US$700,000 for Narine, US$450,000 for Russell in the IPL) against what the WICB can afford."

Nothing about Lil Bravo...so that means he should play in the Australia Tests, though on current form, it might be better for the Windies if he went to the IPL.
