IPL 2019: Top 5 Windies players who can have a major impact in IPL

#1 Chris Gayle

Chris Gayle is one of the most successful players in IPL

Chris Gayle is one of the best hitters this game has ever produced. Gayle, who is known for his quirky sense of humor, was unsold in the first round of the last IPL auction. However, Sehwag bought him for Kings XI Punjab for ₹ 2 crores.

Kings XI Punjab retained Gayle ahead of the upcoming season. He is indeed worth retaining as he has more than 12000 runs in 349 innings with his career best in T20s being an unbeaten 175.

Gayle has many big numbers to his name in T20s. In his T20 career, the Jamaican player has hit 892 sixes and 925 fours which contributes over 75% of his runs. He has scored 21 centuries and 75 half-centuries. Gayle has also picked 79 wickets acting as a part-time spinner.

The numbers are enough to prove how big an impact this player can have especially when it comes to T20s. If Gayle gets his touch in the upcoming IPL, he will surely play a major role for Kings XI Punjab's success this season.
