Gayle’s Carrer
In 1999, Chris Gayle made his international debut as part of the West Indies senior team. His style of play impressed the team’s managers. In July 2001, Chris became a sensation when he scored 175 against Zimbabwe. He held the record for the longest opening partnership, with Daren Ganga, of 214 runs. Despite this wonderful shot, Chris was not always considered a national player, because the century was against Zimbabwe, who were weak.
Then came the year 2002, where he took advantage of his opportunity in the national team. By the end of the year, he scored three centuries in a row against India and became only the third West Indian cricketer to score 1,000 runs in a calendar year. He thus entered the arena of famous players like Brian Lara and Sir Vivian Richards. At that time, he was known as a hard hitter. However, that is not the best way to play in Test matches.
So, he continued to be in and out of the national team. In 2005, he silenced all his detractors when he became the first player to score a Triple Century Test against South Africa. The record was broken by Sri Lankan batsman Mahela Jayawardene.
Around this time, Chris complained of dizziness and weakness on the pitch and was leaving the pitch between games and a few times. When he was taken to the hospital, he was diagnosed with a heart defect.
Chris underwent heart surgery to correct the problem. He performed well in the “Champions Trophy” in 2006. Although his team lost in the final in Australia, Chris was named “Player of the Tournament”. He was honored after scoring 474 runs and taking eight wickets in the tournament. However, his performance remained below average in the “World Cup” the following year.
In the 2007 “World Twenty20”, Chris set the world’s first highest score after scoring 117 against South Africa. He also became the first international cricketer to score centuries in all three formats of the game.
Chris’ reputation for being a hard hitter made him one of the top picks for the Indian Premier League in 2008. The transaction took place in April 2008 and Chris was acquired by “Kolkata Knight Riders”, owned by Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan. Chris missed the opening match of the tournament due to ongoing series against Sri Lanka. In December 2009, in a match against Australia, Chris became the fifth highest scorer with a century in a Test match. He took 70 balls to reach the 100 mark. In November 2010, he created another record when he became the fourth player in the world, after Donald Bradman, Brian Lara and Virender Sehwag, to score two treble centuries in Test cricket.
In November 2012, Chris became the first cricketer to score a six in the first match in a test match against Bangladesh. In February 2015, he became the fourth player in the world to score a double in ODIs.
Chris’s strong point is limited play style. He has played 50 T20 Internationals so far and scored 1519 runs, averaging 35.33 runs. He scored 3,563 “IPL” runs in 96 matches, averaging 42.93 runs per match. With six “IPL” centuries under his belt, he is one of the most century scorers in the tournament.
He also contributed to the long form of the game, playing 284 ODI matches for the West Indies and scoring 9727 runs, averaging 37.11. In the 103 Test matches he played, he scored 7,214 runs, at 42.18 runs per match.
