My Take
Chris Gayle is, simply, a phenomenon. Widely regarded as the greatest Twenty20 batsman ever, the Jamaican opener spent two decades terrorizing bowlers for the West Indies, anchoring title runs at the 2004 Champions Trophy and two World Twenty20 crowns. I am no cricket expert, but even a casual viewer feels the electricity in his explosive, fearless hitting and that infectious Caribbean swagger. The self-styled Universe Boss understood something many athletes miss: sport is also entertainment, and he made it a spectacle. I have a deep weakness for larger-than-life, rule-breaking talents, and Gayle is exactly that.
