The boundary ropes appeared like mere formalities, the fielders became spectators, and spectators became fielders, and the bowlers cringed in utter disbelief.

On the 23rd of April 2013, Christopher Henry Gayle wreaked havoc at the M.Chinnasany Stadium in Bangalore. In a brutal and murderous assault on the hapless Pune Warriors outfit, the legendary West Indian batsman scored a breathtaking 175* off just 66 balls, and in the process allowed the Royal Challengers Bangalore to crush the Pune Warriors by 130 runs.

Let us put this in some context. In the entire history of the IPL, there have been just 2 individual scores of 150 or more, but Gayle scored 154 runs through fours and sixes alone on that day.

In all probability, such a superhuman performance might never be repeated again the history of the IPL.
