West Indies star batsman Chris Gayle added another feature to his cap on Saturday, by becoꦜming the first player to smash 100 sixes in T20 internationals.
After put in to bat by England captain Eoin Morgan at Chester-le-Street, the powerful Jamaican opened the innings alongside Evin Lewis.
Gayle wasted not much time in bringing up the milestone, thumping David Willey for a maximum o𒈔ver midwicket from his seventh ball faced.
That took the belligerent left-hander to his 100th six in just 49th innings, piping New Zealand’s Brendon McCullum on the all-time list.
