Massive fan of Chris Gayle bowing 30mph dross in a cap and shades like it’s a net session. This is the true spirit of the ICC Cricket World Cup. #ICCCricketWorldCup2019

Gayle Does Not Wish To Hand Over His Shade and Caps!!!
The ultimate in nonchalant bowling from Chris Gayle, not bothering to hand over his hat or sunglasses #CWC2019 #ENGvsWI

Gayle is fun to watch!!!
I sometimes wonder if Chris Gayle is straying towards Zlatan’s tedious brand of self-mythologising - but then I see him bowl in these sunglasses and think, nah, he’s still fun. pic.twitter.com/NkdvZSXGsK

West Indies Team is Known For Their Fashion!!!
For me, this is the worst of the West Indies. Everyone loving their antics like Gayle bowling in aviators, brands like Dre Russ and The Boss, but it’s all style over substance. Where is the side we played in the Winter? #Clueless
