Gayle n Marlon... no love!

I can see them batting together; there is no chemistry between them as batting partners.

CHRIS didn't seem to get a congrats from Marlon after his 50.

No fist-bumps after boundaries, etc.

Someone is gonna out soon, sadly. One or the other doesn't seem to want to be in that partnership.

I hope I'm WRONG!!! sad

I knew neither one wanted to be in the company of each other. I felt the disharmony all the way from across the pond.

Sad to see.

At least others would communicate with him and vice versa.

Not between the Icon & Universe Boss.

So Gayle doesn't 'speak' with the BIG IDIOT (based on certain reports here), neither does he speak with the Icon (based on this thread).

Who appears to have the problem here?

Marlon is not making runs and deserves all the 'hounding' as is meted out for that reason, but not hi-fiving Gayle is a stretch and certainly not the biggest of our problems.

I was simply pointing out the routine camaraderie that normally exists between the 2 batsman at the crease which was obviously lacking here. Simple!

From even before the Icon became an icon, what camaraderie has been witnessed between batsmen while he is at the crease?

Ok, I remember Shiv guiding him to his first(??) ODI ton, but other than that he's mostly in and into his own zone.

Just like how Holding related the story about Blackwood saying something like "That is the way I bat", that is Marlon's personality.

I respect your opinion.

But I saw and sense a feeling of uneasiness between the two. That's all.

Lol your sense would be right! Recently on social media an intoxicated Chris posted a video (which was later deleted but not before millions saw and spread it across the internet) that said "Fack Icon, I'm the real facking Icon" lol lol lol lol lol lol and naturally, that kicked off a social media war between the two DWL!

This goes years back though - Marlon even bought land and built his home OVERLOOKING Cramps' home to prove who the real boss was and that is not something he hides lol lol lol lol lol lol
