Chris Gayle scored a tremendous 117 off 57 balls for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) against Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2015. Gayle was in reasonably decent form in IPL 2015 and had scored two half-centuries before the match. He seemed an innings away from really breaking free though. It was to KXIP’s utter horror that he chose to unleash himself in this match. READ: Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Kings XI Punjab IPL 2015 Match 40 at Bangalore Highlights
Gayle’s innings included 12 massive sixes, at least two of which nearly went out of the M Chinnaswamy stadium in Bangalore. He also hit as many as seven boundaries in his 57-ball 117. The KXIP bowlers were made to suffer, as five of the six bowlers used went at over 10 runs per over. However, George Bailey and then Manan Vohra both dropped Gayle at varying points in his innings.
