Chris Gayle is performing decently in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL). The Punjab Kings (PBKS) southpaw has scored 119 runs in four games at an average of 29.75 including two 40+ scores. Recently, the West Indies cricketer caught the eye after he recreated a famous dialogue by Amrish Puri from the film Mr. India. The movie was released in 1987. Puri played the role of the iconic villain there.
Puri passed away in 2005 at the age of 73 leaving his legacy behind. In a video shared by PBKS, Gayle recreated the famous dialogue “Mogambo Bohot Khush Hua” during the training session.

Chris Gayle knows whom to target – KL Rahul
“It was good of Chris that he got through that period. He was always confident that he could make it up. He knew whom to target. That’s what you get with Chris, not just destructive batting but also experience of so many years playing T20 cricket,” Rahul was quoted as saying after the match.
“It’s important to be patient. The guys we have backed and given opportunities are slowly coming through. Hooda has been playing really well, Shahrukh got an opportunity and he’s been batting really well, Bishnoi came in this game and the way he bowled was brilliant. Fingers crossed, hopefully, we can keep climbing and keep getting two points every game,” he stated.
“I am sure it gives him (Bishnoi) a lot of confidence. He, unfortunately, missed the first few games, he’s been working really hard with Anil Bhai,” Rahul added.
