With regards to Gayle's position in the order I note that the selectors have done well to ignore me (as well they should) however I do note that in a little nod to my imaginary placard they give themselves 7 places to play with for the next game
Is it do or die for Gayle in these next two games? I wonder if he is sweating over the toss in the hope that he gets a chance to bat ? We never know, if Chris Fayle (as i hear some referring to him as) today Devon Smith might be partnering Charles in the next game also.
I note also that with 5879 views this topic is just a thousand or so off Mr. Gayle's Test aggregate score Thanks allyuh really madder than me so I better put my head down, graft hard, post more garbage and hope that the trend continues so that I can reach my target
The rumour was well founded cause Smith and Charles open the innings.

Gayle, living it large, scoring 5, bat befuddled!2.5 Gayle won't be hitting into the sea tonight. Hafeez has got him. Hafeez stays full and around middle and off, Gayle plays a defensive, but the bat is either hidden behind or is playing for an offbreak. This one goes with the angle, and Gayle seems pretty plumb despite that big stride of his. CH Gayle lbw b Mohammad Hafeez 5 West Indies 13/2

Gayle, living it large, scoring 1, bat befuddleder!2.2 Mohammad Hafeez to Gayle, OUT, Afridi flings the ball in the air after taking a simple catch at cover! Gayle leaned forward and closed the face against the ball angling into him from round the wicket, it lobbed off the leading edge straight to the fielder. Gayle's wretched form continues, he's dismissed on 999 T20 international runs. CH Gayle c Shahid Afridi b Mohammad Hafeez 1 West Indies 2/2

As for where my money is on this one, i'm keeping mum since i nearly got the bottom cut from my trouser pockets in the IPL final. Wonder why the feeling is so strong for the Jamaica Tallawahs squad?
