Gayle reverses his decision to retire after ICC Cricket World Cup 2019



What’s the story?

Christofer Gayle has revealed that he won’t be retiring after the World Cup 2019. The Carribean superstar now wants to bid goodbye to International cricket after playing the series against India, in the Carribean.

In case you didn’t know..

Earlier in the year, Carribean Cricket Board had tweeted that Gayle will retire from International cricket after this World Cup. The chances of qualifying for the semis seem to be very slim for West Indies, but the cricket fans might get to watch Chris Gayle for some more time.

The heart of the matter

Chris Gayle seems to have changed his mind as he has expressed his desire to play in the Test & ODI series against Team India. Chris revealed that he is unsure about his plans after the World Cup 2019, but he wants to play a Test match against India. However, considering how he has dominated the Twenty20 format, it is a surprise that the left-hander does not want to play in T20 series.
“It’s still not the end. I still have a few games to go. May be another series to go, as well. Who knows, we will see what happens. My plans after World Cup? I may play a Test match against India and then I will definitely play the ODIs against India. I won’t play the T20s. That’s my plan after the World Cup,” Gayle said.
Windies team manager Philip Sooner also confirmed the news that the series against India will be last of Chris Gayle’s International career. The Universal Boss has played 355 International games across all formats, including 103 Tests & 294 ODIs.

What’s next?

Gayle is playing in his 5th World Cup, but he has never been able to play in a World Cup semis. He needs to be at his best if West Indies are to qualify for the semis this time around.
