What was expected to be a cracker of a game turned out to be a one-sided affair after Chris Gayle’s power-hitting stole the show at the Wankhede Stadium yesterday. Royal Challengers Bangalore’s big-hitting West Indian left everyone stunned with his exuberant knock of 82 from 59 balls (5x4s, 6x6s) to successfully chase down Mumbai Indians’ 142-run target with 12 balls to spare in the Indian Premier League-V.
