Gayle one of the great players this is sad news but i dont like it when players announce there retirement before such a big tournament it better when tournament ends for team.

I liked when he and Shiv used to open the batting.

-the highest partnership in ODIs with Samuels.

TIL Chris Gayle still plays ODIs

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

He was remarkably quick between the wickets last July against Bangladesh.

I thought he was fulltime T20 mercenary now and had been for some time.

 

[slippy888]

I cant believe he is 39

I thought he was fulltime T20 mercenary now and had been for some time.

He's been playing in the Regional Super for a few seasons now which made him qualified to play for the senior team.

Is he the last player left who debuted in the 20th century?

 

[jimmy101]

Shoaib Malik is still kicking. Debuted in 1999.

He's just so repulsive isn't he

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Real good laugh at that..especially the Grey hairs in his beard

Just realized he made international debut in 90s. Always good to realize someone from that awesome decade is still active!

Congrats to him on an amazing ODI career.

Two triple centuries, 100 tests at an average of 40 say different.
