He is back! Christopher Henry Gayle!

[cricketworm]

18 months away from test squad.

What he does after coming back?

Score a century.

It's like nothing has changed since he left.

Very pleasing to see Chris playing in Test again. I was skeptical about his fitness, but apparently he doesn't seem like getting tired much.

He is taking it as an ODI or maybe a T20. Doesn't miss a bad ball even one bit.

best thing to cricetk at the momennt is gayle

[cricketworm]

Luck is with him too. Got dropped around when he was on 36. And now even edges are going to 4's.

[cricketworm]

Last time WI had 200+ runs opening partnership was in 1999 that against NZ as well. And this is highest partnership by these two since last test of Gayle in 2010.

What's the highest opening stand in test history?

[paulkatich]

Dropped again. He will make 300 now.

[Senman]

Back with a bang. He is seriously in mood of destruction

[Nazir_ Rules]

Gone for 150.

WI board is stupid and arrogent, they should never have dropped him and WI could have been a lot better side had he been playing all this time.

It's great to see Chris back and in good hitting form.

WI used to collapse in a heap a lot even when Gayle, Sarwan, Lara and Chanders were all in the team. We are true experts for over ten years now.

NO we are the experts.
YOu are the apprentices

150 at a strike rate of 70+. gayle is the real boom boom

[Bowled 'im]

Great to see the windies looking like a decent team again. They were on the rise anyway, and gayle is the icing on the cake!

gayle is a great cricketer should be considered a west indian great

[Savak]

WICB should be sacked for the gross injustice not only to Gayle but to the game at large. Any team in the world would love to have such a fearsome striker of the ball.

13 test hundreds from 92 Tests!? Come again..

[Ironcat]

Conveniently skipped the tough English test tour.

Century after a horde of drops on a flattish track at home against the Kiwis.

WICB may be arrogant or whatever but what Gayle did was absolute B.S as well. Skipping the tours for the sake of earning a few bucks in T20s, it's not a huge problem but he talked too much as if he's a saint.


Common he may pick and chose the series he wants but what about the inexperienced guy who replace him every alternative series? It'll be absolutely injustice to that player. Will you guys tolerate Ajmal skipping test tour and playing T20s all around the world?
