West Indies’ swashbuckling batter Chris Gayle is yet to bid adieu to the game. Chris Gayle, the batting maestro of the shortest format, played his last T20I match in T20 WC 2021, where the Men in Maroon had a forgettable tournament.

West Indies are playing in World Cup Qualifiers 2023 after failing to secure direct qualification for the marquee tournament and recently they lost the league matches against Zimbabwe & Netherlands.

West Indies will have to pull their socks up as we can expect a lot of upsets during the Super 6 stage. West Indies are lacking the intent as against the Netherlands, the side couldn’t defend 375 runs which is not a good sign.

West Indies will have to bring their “A” game if they want to qualify for the championship. The management should not make wholesale changes to the side after 2 defeats as the Super 6 stage would be completely different ball game.

I have been a part of Qualifiers before- Chris Gayle

Chris Gayle was seen having an interaction with PTI and was quite dejected to see the performance of West Indies in the ICC World Cup Qualifiers 2023 and said that the Super 6 Stage would be quite tough.

“It is upsetting. I have been a part of Qualifiers before. Sad to be in such a situation. Things have not gone our way going into the Super Six. It’s going to be tough. I will be very disappointed not seeing the West Indies in the World Cup here in India,” said Chris Gayle.

Chris Gayle also made a huge statement on his retirement from cricket.

“I don’t think there will be any international cricket from my point of view. After the World Cup in 2021, I was supposed to have a farewell game, it did not happen. We have a new president in the place, so I don’t see it happening. But I have not made an announcement as yet. I am still active but won’t be playing so happen,” he added.
