Chris Gayle of the West Indies in action
Chris Gayle has scored two triple centuries in his Test career

The T20 cricket supremo made his international debut much before his favorite format was even born. He is the Sachin Tendulkar of T20 cricket and holds almost all the records available in the miniature format.

His debut against the Indians in 1999 didn't go to plan as he was sent back to the pavilion for just 1 run. He was far from over, though, piling upwards of 7000 runs in both Tests and ODIs.

You will be forgiven to misjudge Gayle's worth in whites especially after his dominance in white ball cricket. He is one of the four batsmen to score two triple centuries. Be it his dwindling fitness or change in interests, Gayle no longer plays Tests.

He has been giving sporadic appearances in ODIs and T20Is of late and the 2019 Cricket World Cup might well draw curtains on his international career.
