Chris Gayle might stand tall at over six feet and wield his bat to make or break T20 leagu, but make no mistake about his affy for Tt cricket. His absenteeism om Tts later his reer may seem to suggt otherwise but Gayle has racked up 15 Tt hundreds and over 7, 000 ns across 103 match so far, and equently turns up for his many T20 anchis jerseys numbered 333 - his hight First Class sre, which he ma agast Sri Lanka at Galle, to bee only the fourth batsman after Don Bradman, Brian Lara and Virenr Sehwag wh two Tt tripl a lifetime.

So 2009, Chris Gayle arrived England after playg seven IPL gam to pta Wt Indi a Tt match at Lord's, a game that his si lost heavily amidst sthg cricism om media and fans alike. Be bee of his growg T20 appete, his never-endg nflicts wh the Wt Indi Cricket Board, or his gradg fns level, Gayle's ternatnal appearanc have gone om few and far between to very ltle off late, wh his foc now on beg a T20 eelancer, not sgularly an era where retirement-age dangeroly seems to hover around thirty-two. Debutg for Wt Indi as a 20-year-old the year 2000, Gayle went on to pta the natnal si, takg over om Ramnarh Sarwan.

He didn't start as an openg batsman, but soon graduated to one, but spe well-timed performanc and a good rerd, doubts over Gayle's technique agast seam and swg have remaed. Come to the more batsman-iendly limed-overs format, and Gayle seems more at home. If not that, teams have religly relied on short-pched liveri, aimed at his ribs, which Gayle eher top-edg or more often buri ep to the square leg stands.

Gayle's aversn to nng on and twos - more nspicuo later his reer - shouldn't startle you as much as his reliance on them, rotatg the strike early his ngs before unleashg a theatril, sometim unstoppable barrage of kg-sized six all around. Even as he belted rerds all over the place, Gayle'e mountg jury wo meant his stts wh the Wt Indi natnal si have bee rarer.
