Who should Gayle blame this time?

Sarwan?


Former India all-rounder Parvez Rasool condemned Tuesday social media memes mocking West Indies star Chris Gayle after the abrupt collapse of Indian Heaven Premier League (IHPL) in J&K, calling the portrayal “irresponsible and harmful for Kashmir’s cricket”.


The T20 tournament organised by non-profit Yuva Society collapsed Saturday night after organisers allegedly fled a Srinagar hotel without paying players, staff, or umpires.

But Gayle can hardly run these days, far less lift a bat

Local cricketers told the BBC that during the first match where Gayle was playing, there were just 400-500 people in the crowd, with spectators not turning up even after organisers slashed ticket prices by a third.

Looks like a typical day at one of our regional venues.
