IML 2025: Gayle, Benn Guide West Indies Masters To Second Win
The DY Patil Stadium was drenched in nostalgia as the icons of West Indies and England assembled under the floodlights for the fifth match of the inaugural IML, with the West Indies Masters riding on an all-round effort. The stadium was transported back in time as Chris Gayle and Dwayne Smith reignited the Caribbean flair, launching a fearless assault that powered the West Indies to a blistering 77-run opening stand in just over seven overs after being put in to bat.
Gayle, who stood as the West Indies Masters skipper in place of Brian Lara, unleashed a vintage power-hitting masterclass, smoking 39 off 19 deliveries, while Smith matched his left-handed partner shot for shot to slam 35 off 25. While Gayle dealt mostly in boundaries, dispatching the bowlers for four massive sixes and three boundaries, Smith was more subdued of the two, scoring four boundaries and a couple of sixes.
