Apart from destroying the best bowling attacks in world cricket, former West Indies captain and explosive batter, Chris Gayle is known around the world as a sheer entertainer on and off the field. Whenever Gayle plays cricket, there is no dearth of entertainment as the 'Universe Boss' always seems to see a funny side of almost everything. During the fifth game of the ongoing Legends League Cricket (LLC) between the India Maharajas and the World Giants on March 15 (Wednesday), Gayle provided another moment to cherish for the onlookers.
Playing for the Giants, the West Indian showcased his dance moves on the field which even forced opposition batter Suresh Raina into laughter.

Meanwhile, the Giants registered a hard-fought three-wicket against the Maharajas on the back of a brilliant batting display by Gayle and a tremendous spell of bowling by Brett Lee. Chasing a modest target of 137 runs, the Giants rode on Chris Gayle's entertaining knock and chased down the target with eight balls to spare. The 'Universe Boss' scored an attractive half-century before Suresh Raina sent the West Indian back to the hut. Gayle departed after scoring 57 runs off 46 balls with the help of nine fours and a six. Shane Watson (26 runs off 16 balls) made a handy contribution as well.
With the ball, Lee delivered a stifling spell and bagged three wickets. On the back of the former Australian pacer's terrific effort with the ball, the Maharajas could manage to post a modest total of 136/9 in 20 overs.
After the victory, the Giants scaled to the top of the points table with two wins in three matches while the Maharajas are stationed at the bottom with just one win in four matches.
