When Chris Gayle’s bat does the talking there is little any bowler in the world can do to stop the ‘Gaylestorm’. His innings on Saturday night reinforced why the West Indian is rated as the best T20 batsman in the world by many experts and fans.Gayle blew away the 007 Warriors bowlers with an unbeaten 101 off 48 balls on Saturday evening to give the Legacy All Star a seven-wicket win in the T20 Unity Cricket game at the National Stadium.

This was Gayle in his most imperious form. The big left-hander thrashed 11 sixes and four fours in a brutal assault on the bowlers.

I am hoping that hurricane Gayle will maintain some if that "imperious form" for the upcoming World Cup as we desperately need to reclaim our #1 position in the world.

"Ah how dem come fuh see", Gayle's famous words. lol lol

What other player and country in the Caribbean can attract thousands of fans like Gayle and Guyana?

This match totally embarrassed the incompetent WICB. It is only a matter of time they will wanna stop these matches. lol

Both Gayle and Russell are currently in awesome form, I hope that they will continue to play well into the WC.

Even his biggest critics have to concede that Gayle is simply one of the greatest T20 cricketer, ironically he has flogged his critics into utter silence, not a word from them on the boards today.

I am very worried at the severe treatment of Badree with 5 sixes on one over, I like him as a bowler so I hope it hasn't dampened Badree' s motivation. Sammy also got ambushed by a rampant Gayle, in fact no bowler was spared from his brutal attack. In other words, Navind, that's the reason why WI rely on him.

I would love for each WI batsman to do their talking in the form of batting, great place to express oneself while silencing your critics.

I like Gayle, but when it comes to crunch time, he is also a passenger.

Well there are 11 selected members of the team no need to wait for Marlon time or Gayle time during crunch time, they all should have the ability to win the match for WI.
