IPL 2020: 5 Benched players who should get chances in the fourth week

5. Chris Gayle

The Caribbean cricketing star has been a spectator’s delight for his ability to add crisp and spices to the gentleman’s sport. Holding the capacity to hit back-to-back out-of-the-park sixes, Chris Gayle has left no stones unturned to etch his name as one of the best in the T20 business.

The 175* against the defunct Pune Warriors in the 2013 IPL gave him immense glory among the short-format lovers in India. The heavyweight has amassed 4484 runs in 125 odd matches over the span of 13 years in IPL.

Off late, the stalwart is plying his trade for Kings XI Punjab in the UAE. The 41-year-old has been warming the bench ever since the commencement of the cricketing carnival.

With Punjab stationed at the lower psotion in the points-table, the team management must be twiddling their fingers to get back on the winning track. Hence, the power-hitter may be thrown the hat of opportunity to salvage the team from danger.
