Gayle hides in the attic

Chris Gayle is pretty cool.

Compared to you or me that is.

Especially you.

But I don’t think that he is a particularly deep thinker.

I could be wrong.

But why on earth would he openly admit that he is rubbish vs Vaas.

It doesn’t make sense, Vaas is not a big talker, only people who have seen the last few Sri Lanka V West Indies series would really have known about this.

So about 5 people.

Hence why coming out and stating it is odd.

It makes it more real.

It gives Vaas even more confidence.

And it means every press conference Gayle gives from here on in is going to involve questions about Vaas.

Perhaps even questioning his courage or his leadership skills in allowing an all rounder to open so he could hide himself a 6.

Ofcourse this is part of the appeal of a man like Gayle. While you and I would hit the nets, look at tapes, think about new stratergies, he goes upto WWF Bravo and says, wanna open the batting today.

Simple.

Clean.

He probably wouldn't take as much notice of Journalists pestering him anyway, so maybe his way does work.

He made runs, Bravo made runs, and Vaas didn't get him out.

So he remains cooler than us for another test.www.cricketwithballs.com "Prctice Sehwagology and kill the Probots"
