Though the Caribbean superstar is a very entertaining and cheerful person, he was seen in a purely emotional state while remembering his mother. Earlier on that day, he wished all the lovely mothers on Mother’s Day through a tweet. “Happy Mother’s Day to all the beautiful Mom’s out there. Have a lovely day,” his tweet read.

Gayle was last seen in action in IPL 2021 (suspended currently) with Punjab Kings where he starred for them on more than one occasion. The tournament would possibly resume in the month of September and fans would be looking out to see more of him. After the tournament got halted, Gayle flew to the Maldives as many nations have suspended flights from India due to a terrible second wave of COVID-19.
