Lovely knock @henrygayle. It's no test double v Bangladesh but well batted nonetheless.

Stadium DJ plays 'Get up Stand up'. But everyone already is! Gayle standing& hitting, crowd standing to catch, fielders standing jobless.

Whatmore thinking – after all this madness they only scored 372! LOL. SL scored 398 way back in 1996

If Gayle was English there is a good chance under the current management that he would currently be on holiday.

England: endless statistical analysis, hundreds of meetings, train every day, 52-page diet list.
Chris Gayle: cut down on the parties.
