Punjab Kings (PBKS) legend Chris Gayle wreaked carnage onto Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad on Friday after he smashed a flat six down the ground off Yuzvendra Chahal to complete 15 runs in the RCB bowler's over.

Costing the RCB an extremely expensive over, Gayle hit a six off the second and last ball delivered by Chahal, one flat and the other powered down the ground towards the long-off completing 36 runs off just 13 balls. According to former cricketer and TV presenter Michael Slater, Gayle's six was the lowest Vivo IPL has seen in its history with a range of 77m.

Pertinently, the West Indies legend had just come out of a berserk previous over where he smashed 5 boundaries against Jamieson building up runs quickly and smoothly for the Punjab Kings in their powerplay. Chris Gayle along with skipper KL Rahul have reached a quick half-century partnership placing Punjab at 70/1 after 8 overs.

Netizens React

In a pursuit to get back on the top of the points table, RCB is locking horns with PBKS today. Punjab has a better head-to-head record against Virat Kohli’s side, and had won both games in the UAE in IPL 2020. Overall, the two teams have played 26 matches in IPL history, with Royal Challengers Bangalore winning 12 matches and Punjab Kings winning 14.
