Just like always, Chris Gayle is full of strange surprises. He has shocked the entire cricket world by announcing that he might be going to Pakistan. The tweet of this great left-handed batsman came when New Zealand pulled out of the Pakistan series at the last moment. Most of the Pakistani players and coaches have criticized New Zealand for backing out of the game at the last minute.
Chris Gayle has joined the voices in support of the Pakistani cricketers and has stated that he might be going to Pakistan very soon. He has also asked the people interested in watching him play to follow him to the nation.
Scuffle Between New Zealand And Pakistan
New Zealand backing out of the Pakistan tour has been the talk of the town because of the strong political and diplomatic consequences this might have. The New Zealand team had finally reached Pakistan after 18 long years. This had happened during the time of the pandemic and the team had completed their isolation time period as well. The entire team, along with the coaches and physiotherapists, was ready for the game when the fixture for the match was called off just before the first ball could have been bowled. This has brought into question the managerial decisions of the New Zealand team as well. 24 players are now to return to New Zealand, while the T20 World Cup team will continue in Dubai.
