First Class Captain
 
Debut: Oct 2007
Venue: Milwaukee
Runs: 4,389
So what is worse?

Gayle and his team are on their way to a 5-0 whitewash. What's worse, bragging about how you're going to demolish a team and get humiliated, or just getting humiliated and keeping your mouth shut? Not a real question, but if I was Gayle I would be pretty embarrassed right now...

Yeah its certainly more embarrassing when you proclaim that you will beat the other team but to be honest who cares?

Both teams lost and that in it's own is embarrassing. The fact that we didn't win a game through the entire tour is sad. At least Gayle had that draw to talk about plus the series isn't over yet for them.

Don't know about bragging, but should we say Australia is a much better team and we know we can't beat them. May be we will try to be competitive. The world knows no Pakistani team has done good here and we are no exception. This is what Moyo told the world about his team. The question is should the captain say what our captain said? Go into the match already defeated?

Venue: Brisbane, Australia
Runs: 11,107
Although it may seems hard to beleive, but this series is not over just yet. Their batting has let them down in the last two games. If Gayle fires any game, you can expect it to get close.

Anyways like insaniyat says I would rather my captain speaks like Gayle rather than be defeated before the start.

2 games in and they're already being earmarked as getting whitewashed? Chris Gayle hasn't even fired yet lol. I'd say Yousuf's defeatest comments were worse, you have to be confident in this game and even though Gayle's team have been coming off second best, at least he let Australia know they're up for the contest.
