Kings XI Punjab Bags West Indies Super Star

Mumbai, Jan 28: West Indies Super Star Chris Gayle was unsold on the day 1 of IPL Auction, but he was purchased by Kings XI Punjab with a cost of RS 2 crores rupees.

Interestingly, no team, including his parent franchise of Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), moved a muscle when the big Jamaican's name came up on two occasions, once as part of the marquee players and then as an unsold player.

The Kings XI Punjab team tweeted that, " The universe boss @henrygayle is a KXIP player! Don't pinch yourself. You read that right! Welcome to the family Chris! #LivePunjabiPlayPunjabi #IPLAuction"

Gayle had hammered a massive 168 not out off just 69 balls recently in the Bangladesh Premier League, but that really did not cut much ice at the IPL Auction.
