World T20 - 15th match, Super 10 Group 1
England v West Indies
West Indies won by 6 wickets (with 11 balls remaining)

Is not the I who seh dat Chris Gayle, living it large, scoring like a six machine

98 Sixes for Gayle in T20Is, the most by any batsman in this format. During the course of this innings, he went past Brendon McCullum's previous record of 91. In World T20s, Gayle has 60 sixes, which is almost twice as many as the next best: Yuvraj Singh has 31 sixes from 25 innings, compared to Gayle's 60 from 23. His 11 sixes in this innings is the third best in any T20I innings, and the best in the World T20.

Chris Gayle, living it large, scoring like a six machine, Is datzhow the aye say it! Like a six machine.

Do you know that allyuh couldn't pay me enough to invent this lunacy

Not realising that 'The World Boss" wasn't too hamstrung to celebrate with the victorious opponents!... i repeat, there is no rumour, about which to test the truth quotient, that the World Boss fraid of Taliban balls.

Meanwhile, if you interested in the aftermath party aka Banana skin-teeth: Afghanistan 123/7 v West Indies 117/8

Tell me something, is where allyuh does get them pictures from

Anyhow while I wait for an update i hafi mek unu know that a bad-minded person send me a telegram saying datzhow i should start a picture caption competition on this fabulous record-breaking topic and invite the whole world wide readership to come up with a more fitting title than "Chris Gayle celebrates with Afghanistan" .

I write back saying that is email and text carrying the swing nowadays therefore i don't believe in telegram! The good for nothing somebody write back ignoring my protestations and urging that i should try get a still photo of that BBC page just as it is for all to see with CG standing with arms raised between them victorious Afghan cricket boys (maybe somebody can help us out )

The plea was so earnest that I had was to tek a long hard look at the page before pressing play and lo and behold i realise what the bad-minded telegrammer was trying to insinuate! And in a flash a caption come to my fingertips: ... Is So I Did Lift She Up & Snap Went My Hamstring

Yes - that's right.



Can anyone imagine Viv Richards leading the opposition's celebrations after a West Indies defeat in such circumstances?
