We all know, Windies team were losing their rhythm in Cricket. Most of their young players were failing. We all know how much of a difference Windies could do within few minutes of a game. So Windies Cricket Board wanted to find that form.

So they brought back some old faces back to the squad. You know some Windies players were dropped down due to politics inside the Cricket Board.

Players such as Chris Gayle, Dwayne Bravo, Fidel Edwards was called in to team when Windies started their T20 series against Sri Lanka. Since then, they played for Three T20 Series. They played against,

  • Sri Lanka (Won 2-1)
  • South Africa (Lost 2-3)
  • Australia (Won 4-1)
    When talking about T20, Chris Gayle is a Very Special Character. He returned to the ground. But he's not young now. He's In The Verge of 42. He was out of the game for a bit. It's always hard to get on track after that kinda thing.
    Since his return, he was unable to get into a decent score. When he failed in batting, he tried to support the team from bowling. Sometimes it worked out. But not scoring much was a big problem for him..

    After trying to get into form since 10 matches, but didn't work out. But on the 3rd and decisive T20 Match against Australia, He came back to his best performances. "The Universe Boss" came back.

    He had a slow start but he started accelerating by hitting sixes to spinners. When he hit sixes, he wanted to laugh for happiness, but he's still too proud to do so. Gayle also surpassed 14000 runs mark in T20 matches.. Unbelievable ball striker he is..

    Little thirties, twenties doesn't matter to him. He wanted that Half-Century. And he got it in style by hitting a six. What a beautiful scene that was. I think almost all people who watch the match except Australian were so happy on that moment.

    He held his gigantic, heavy bat and showed that "he's back.. The Boss Is Back.. " and hugged the Current T20 Captain Nicolas Pooran.

    Actually for me, it was so emotional. Chris Gayle's batting is part and parceled with our lives. We like his strokes and see the ball sailing in the high sky. We like to see his iconic celebration after getting a Century.

    This is a man who's in the verge of 42 Years. He came back when his country needs the most even if he was dropped down for almost 2 Years. When I remember this, it reminds me of situation in Our Country that players try to finish their career because they didn't get chances to play. I really don't know whether it's fair and it's not up for us to decide it..
