West Indies' Chris Gayle, who put Sri Lanka's attack to the sword with an explosive double century as the visitors posted a huge 362-2 on the opening day of the first Test on Monday, now wants to go for a triple century.<br /><br />"I'd love that. That will be another milestone. The wicket is still good to bat on and if we can get past the first hour, anything is possible," said Gayle, aiming for his second Test triple century. "I didn't get centuries against three teams - India, Sri Lanka and Pakistan. Coming here, I was looking forward to it and eventually got it. I am very pleased and happy to bat through the day."<br /><br />Gayle dominated the Sri Lankan attack with a wide range of attacking strokes and completed his 13th Test century in the afternoon when he hoisted Randiv over long-off for the second six in the over. He reached his double-century with a single off Mendis.
