Chris Gayle has said his body "needs a break" after his second T20 Blast spell with Somerset came to an end on Sunday.

The 36-year-old made a half century to help beat Hamsphire by six wickets in his last scheduled county game of 2016...
"The mind is willing but the body says 'you've got to take a break'. There is too much stiffness on this body at this time," Gayle told BBC Radio Bristol.

"But we'll see how well I can actually manage that, how long I can actually last and go on to entertain the fans around the world ...

"There is too much stiffness on this body at this time," Gayle told BBC Radio Bristol."

No wonder?

No wondering stiffness at all me don't thinks!!! because it's Chris Gayle, living it large & NOT Stevie scoring at something that mek him body limp from too much stiffness some time previously. What do you think????

"There is too much stiffness on this body at this time," Gayle told BBC Radio Bristol."

Chris Gayle, living it large mek him body too stiff at this time; scoring off the agenda unless he chooses to turn openher in his da club stripping

Chris Gayle has had a strip club installed in his own house. The West Indies batsman flaunted his new house design along with the caption "if you ain't got a strip club at home, you ain't a true cricket player"

Some less well informed media outlets have described the announcement that St. Kitts Patriots T20 cricket franchise has acquired the signature, and hopefully plenty runs, of Chris Gayle for the 2017 CPL season as a "Shocker!". However, it is only here on this "Chris Gayle, living it large, scoring nothing ... again" topic where you will first read about the cleverly conceived marketing ploy that could be behind the signing. Read on ...

We all know that the history books posit that the Caribbean was "discovered" by dat damn blasted liar named Coiumbus However, only time will tell whether this announcement will come to be viewed by Jamaica Tallawahs fans as a modern-day act of daring do, piracy and betrayal hatched in T20 cricket's corporate boardrooms!

Mr. Gayle will get kitted-up to represent a team based on an island (yes folks a whole country) that in former times was known as St. Christopher Island From a marketing person's perspective not only is this is a dream move, but to mix metaphors and national iconography, am sure that the CPL T20 moguls see this as having the potential to be an El Dorado for the 168 km2 (65 sq mi) island state of St. Kitts ... I mean St. Christopher Island ... I mean St. Columbus Kitty Land ... (am obviously confused ).

Not only that but am certain that no Jamaican would have ever countenanced the idea of renaming their country as St. Gayland. Am I right or am I right? Good. So in the final analysis dem sorta will just hafi suck it up and get over it while Gayle laughs all the way to the banks. Oh & if that ain't enough mek I hafi remind the tearful likkle but tallawah fans dem datz how in this day and age when every damned thing is corporate and monetised you hafi render onto St. Chris dat which him Mama name him after. And if she choose to name her boy after some prime caribbean real estate none of we got any right to grumble So FetchDat!TM

So there you have it, St. Christopher Patriots CPL T20 franchise announces coup! first read about here on "Chris Gayle, living it large, scoring nothing again", a topic hosted on the windies fans dot com wonderful website <<< free advert

Yours truly & with heartfelt commiserations to my Jamaican comrades

There was another posting who cussed Gayle and still cussing him...even though Gayle help got him and his masters Championship etc.

That ungrateful skunt has not even offered his congratulations given that this achievement has brought pride to Gayle and Jamaica but to the entire region!

Yet him and his master will seek ways to take credit!

Indian Premier League, 27th match: Kolkata Knight Riders v Royal Challengers Bangalore at Kolkata, Apr 23, 2017

And is back to business ... as usual.

So there was the whole windiesfans dot com munity reading my recent posts and wondering is how come I manage to be word smithying so eloquently (as usual) in acknowledgement - and apparent celebration - of the unrivalled feat that the legendary Don-A-Gorgon Chris Gayle had recently put the seal on with much fanfare - I refer of course to Chris scoring his Ten Thousandth T20 run. I could well imagine that the whole of the hype-addicts, groupies & lickit-bat-&-ball followers dem all in eager anticipation over the show that Chris was bound to put on for them when he next walked out to bat.

Well here I am to tell allyuh that the title Chris Gayle, living it large, scoring nothing ... again was well and truly proven because in an utter horror show in which Royal Chargers Bangalore were dismissed for forty-nine!
Yes, I mean 49 for all ten wickets! chasing a modest total of 132 for victory. Booooooooooo!!!!!! They were dismissed in 9.4 overs and not a single batsman nor extras got into double figures!

It was a rout! In fact extras at 7 contributed the exact same amount as Chris Gayle did! He was 5th out with the innings score at 40!

Kolkata Knight Riders 131 (19.3/20 ov)
RCB 49 (9.4/20 ov)
Kolkata Knight Riders won by 82 runs

Chris Gayle, living it large, scoring nothing ... again as Royal Challengers Bangalore are routed by Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL 2017.

" What's all this royal chat pon the day datzhow that obnoxious Greek fella fire di wuk! Anyway I bet that in retirement HRH won't be found swilling from any old dutty troug! It will be gilded with lillies and inlaid with diamonds.

Where were we? Ah the Beach ....."

I don't spam any of your posts, and I expect the same courtesy to be extended to me.
