On the work front, Gayle will be in India for IPL 2021 starting from April 9. After conquering the Bengaluru crowd for Royal Challengers Bangalore, Gayle made a quiet move to Punjab Kings (formerly Kings XI Punjab) in 2018 and made an instant impact with another strong season that included a century against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).
Gayle had a fine season in 2020 where he was on the verge of getting his 7thꦬ IPL century but got out on 99. He struck 3 half-centuries and scored a total of 288 runs from 210 balls that he faced. Could this be his last season in IPL? Well probably, but he is sure to summon a “Gaylestorm” in India.
