Twitter Reactions: Gayle Storm blows away England at the Wankhede

Chris Gayle is a ticking time bomb. When he’s on the mood, not even the best can withstand “The Storm”. Chris Gayle, in a performance which has been witnessed quite a few times from him in this format, absolutely obliterated the hapless English attack into smithereens.

The new-look English side might have been satisfied with the score on board after the end of their innings, but Gayle’s 100* off just 48 balls made the target look like a cotton candy. The West Indies chased down the target with 11 balls to spare, and they are definitely in their “Calypso Kings” mode this time around.

An innings wherein Gayle smashed 11 sixes and just 5 boundaries, it could have been a once in a lifetime knock for any other batsman, but not for Gayle; who scored his record 17th T20 century. Some of the other records he broke include – most number of sixes in an innings, first ever batsman to score multiple T20I centuries in World T20, Fastest ever century in World T20 history, and that’s just to name a few.

Chris Gayle has launched West Indies’ title charge in a spectacular fashion, and the opposition will definitely be more than wary off him. And as expected, people in the social media expressed their awe and admiration of the Big Jamaican following his blitzkrieg innings which lit up the Wankhede tonight.
