Has there ever been a player like Chris Gayle? Has there ever been a player so fearsome and so ferocious with the bat as The Universal Boss?

Not many bowlers can claim to have got out of the Gaylestorm safe and sound and this only shows the kind of dominance the West Indian has on the game. He has made a name for himself in the cricketing world courtesy of his power-hitting and vibrant personality. Gayle is one of the few men who've won the ICC World T20 World Cup twice and with the 2020 edition approaching fast and The Universal Boss still going strong, ruling out a third one might be a bit silly.

He has amassed a total of 920 runs in 28 matches and is the only player in history to have recorded two tons in the competition as well.
