Chris Gayle
Christopher Henry "Chris" Gayle (born 21 September 1979) is a Jamaican cricketer who plays international cricket for the West Indies. Considered as one of the greatest big hitting legends in limited overs cricket, Gayle has set numerous world records in all formats of the game. He captained the West Indies' side from 2007 to 2010. He plays domestic cricket for Jamaica, and also represents the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League, the Melbourne Renegades in the Big Bash League and the Dhaka Gladiators in the Bangladesh Premier League. He has also represented Worcestershire, the Western Warriors, Sydney Thunder, Barisal Burners, Kolkata Knight Riders and Somerset CCC in his career. He was also selected for team Uva Next for the inaugural Sri Lanka Premier League in 2012. He is one of only four players who have scored two triple centuries at Test level: 317 against South Africa in 2005, and 333 against Sri Lanka in 2010. He is known as a big hitter, very often hitting sixes; in 2012 he became the first player to hit a six off the first ball of a Test match. Playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore, he scored a 30-ball century, that became the highest individual T20 score (175 not out).〔http://www.espncricinfo.com/indian-premier-league-2013/engine/match/598027.html〕 It eclipsed the previous mark set by Brendon McCullum of Kolkata Knight Riders. At the launch of the Caribbean Premier League he was announced as the first franchise player for the league.〔http://cplt20.com/news/caribbean-premier-league-announces-exciting-plans-tournament〕 Chris Gayle became the first batsman in World Cup history to score a double century when he reached 200 off 138 balls during the 2015 Cricket World Cup versus Zimbabwe. He finished on 215 runs, which was the record for highest score in a World Cup until it was broken by Martin Guptill, ironically against Gayle's West Indies team.〔http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/cricket/31599255〕 He is one of the five players to score a double century in ODIs. He is also the only player to score a test triple century, an ODI double century, and a T20I century. ==Early Career== Gayle started his cricket career with the famous Lucas Cricket Club in Kingston, Jamaica. Gayle claimed "If it was not for Lucas I don't know where I would be today. Maybe on the streets."〔 Lucas Cricket Club's nursery has been named in honour of Gayle.〔
