Indian pace spearhead Zaheer Khan has rated West Indian skipper and fiery left-hander Chris Gayle as the main threat for India when the two teams meet in the Super Eight stage.
 
The left-arm medium-pace bowler said that if Gayle could be dismissed early India would have a good chance in the match. 
"He (Gayle) is a proven match-winner. If we could get him out early, it would definitely be great help for us," Zaheer said after returning from a shoulder injury with a four-wicket haul against Ireland on Wednesday night. 
"It will be good if we can get early wickets against the West Indies. I am hopeful because we are clicking as a bowling unit and each bowler understands his role. 
"We are chipping in with wickets at the right time," he added. 
India take on West Indies in their first match of the Super Eight stage at Lord's on Friday. They would then face hosts England at the same venue on Sunday and then finally would clash with South Africa on June 16.LATEST SCORES
