The past couple of seasons haven’t been that great for Chris Gayle. He has barely managed to score more than 400 runs in a season since 2016. Hence, he nearly went unsold in last year’s auction before being picked up by KXIP. With 368 runs in 11 innings, he managed to perform decently for his new franchise. He hit a century and three half-centuries in the process.

The destructive southpaw will look to make an even bigger statement in the upcoming edition of IPL. In the recent ODI series against England, Gayle looked in scintillating form on his way to two centuries. He even scored a blistering 162 in the fourth ODI.
Considering the IPL is just a few days away, Chris Gayle should have no problem carrying over his form into the IPL. If that happens, then every IPL franchise will be put on high alert as it will be raining sixes.
It wouldn’t be surprising if the Universe Boss finishes the tournament as the highest run scorer.

Sunil is a pro wrestling journalist, covering AEW and WWE news stories at Sportskeeda. He holds an MBA degree in Marketing, and has nearly 7 years of experience. A wrestling aficionado since childhood, Sunil used to imitate his favorite wrestlers as a young kid, and started writing professionally about the sport via Sportskeeda’s revenue-sharing opportunity.
Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
Always focused on making his work accurate and reliable, Sunil thoroughly checks his facts before writing his articles. When not writing for pro wrestling, he spends his time watching cricket.
