Chris Gayle has just left the Pakistan Super League (PSL) in response to the country’s call. This time around, the batting monster can be seen on the West Indies T20 team.
If so, he will be seen wearing the Caribbean team jersey for the first time in two years. Not only that, he can also be seen at the next T20 World Cup.
Sri Lanka will tour the West Indies next March. There will be a three-game T20 series. Although the hosts have yet to announce their team for the series, the inclusion of Gayle, 41, has been confirmed. It is said that it is called to give the opportunity to prepare for the next T20 World Cup.
Many describe the fact that he was called up to the national team at this age as a reward for Gayle’s patriotism. After so many days, many were surprised to see his dedication to the national team. Because for many years now, he’s been more interested in franchise-based leagues than the national team. But this time he was seen doing something exceptional.
Gayle played for Quetta Gladiators, Pakistan’s Twenty20 team. However, he will return to PSL if he plays for the national team. Gayle will rejoin Quetta in the second half of the tournament to be held in Lahore after playing for the country.
After the game against Lahore Calenders on Monday night, Gayle said: “It is sad to leave PSL now. Because I wanted to play all season. My wish was to dominate the PSL and give some gifts of joy to the fans. ‘
He added: “But I am optimistic about joining the second round of the tournament in Lahore. We didn’t want to start with two guys. But now the tournament has just started. Hopefully we can turn around with a test of our strength. ‘
The West Indies will play a three-game T20 series against Sri Lanka at home next month. The three games will be on March 4, 6 and 7. The Caribbean Cricket Board keeps Chris Gayle on the team for this series. So he was forced to leave PSL in the middle.
Gayle played the first two PSL games for Quetta. In the first game he made 39 of 24 balls with 4 fours and 2 sixes. In the second game on Monday, he made 6 runs of 40 balls with 5 fours and 6 sixes.
Gayle last played in the last Caribbean jersey in August 2019. Seba was seen in an ODI match against India on a tour of the West Indies. The last time he played for the International Twenty20 was in March 2019, against the English.
