Gambhir pronounced 172 was not a tiny aim though once bomb Gayle, who scored a 55-ball dominant 102, got going, a compare had slipped divided from KKR’s hands.

“The approach Chris (Gayle) batted you could not have finished much. Entire credit goes to him as well as a approach he batted. you consider putting 172 was a really great total. The wicket got improved though you do not wish to take credit divided from Gayle who only batted us out of this game,” Gambhir pronounced during a post-match press conference.
