'Let The Game Begin': Chris Gayle Cheers For RCB And PBKS In Unique Fashion
In a viral Instagram post, Gayle posed in a unique fusion of the two franchises closest to his IPL heart — sporting a vibrant red turban in homage to PBKS, while donning RCB's iconic jersey and customised sneakers in the franchise's trademark red and gold. His caption? Short and striking: "Let The Game Begin! RCB v PBKS #OneIndia #IPL #Finals #2025". Social media erupted in appreciation, with fans and former players hailing it as the perfect prelude to the high-stakes final.
Gayle, who thrilled IPL audiences for over a decade with his jaw-dropping sixes and carefree charisma, shares a deep connection with both franchises. From 2011 to 2017, he was the heartbeat of RCB's top order, amassing 3,163 runs in 85 matches at a ferocious strike rate of 152.73. His unbeaten 175 against Pune Warriors India in 2013 remains etched in IPL folklore as the highest individual score in T20 cricket. In 2022, RCB inducted him into their Hall of Fame — a tribute to a legacy that redefined power-hitting.
