Will India's bowling attack be sufficiently mediocre and the wicket sufficiently flat for our 'batting superstar' to score big?

Cricket World Cup: West Indies Let Down by Shocking Chris Gayle Innings

A complete and utter embarrassment to listen to and to watch.

... it is certainly fortunate that we have managed to overcome the mighty United Arab Emirates today despite the absence of out T20 franchise batting superstar due to his bad back ...

Milne's pace. raw pace. Sends Gayle back. This is excellent cricket. Just sheer raw pace. On a length, pretty quick, it's 149.1ks, Gayle is late into the big booming drive, and inside edge hits the stumps. What a valiant big-man-on-the-burning deck effort by the limping Gayle here. Some very clean hitting, but also he had nothing to lose so that mind have freed his mind a little 120/5

CH Gayle b Milne 61 top score

Well, at least Gayle ended the World Cup with 61 from 33 balls...what did the other batsmen do in this quarterfinal against NZ?

The future without Gayle looks bright indeed...yeah, right!

... now please retire from international cricket so that we can all move on and you can try and pay off your tax bill by pursuing your career as an international light entertainer.

Update from Kentucky Fried Cricket ...

Gayle opted out of Chennai clash



Conserving energy.

'Chris Gayle has stated that while he appreciates the gesture, he will henceforth no longer wear the orange cap awarded to the leading run scorer of the IPL if the opportunity ever came his way again. Gayle cited aesthetic reasons for his decision. "Totally messes up my colour scheme, man," moaned the Royal Challengers Bangalore opener. "Bright orange on top of red and gold? Are you kidding me? The last time something clashed so hard, Ottis Gibson was coach and I was trying to get back into the West Indies team."'

Gayle might be moving to India soon if this keeps up!

"Chris Gayle, living it large, scoring nothing again" is 14424 views not out.

Gayle and KP might be good friends, but there are differences between the two when it comes to the nature of their conflicts with their respective boards....
