No team moved a muscle when Chris Gayle's name was called by auctioneer Richard Medley on two occasions at the 2018 Indian Premier League (IPL) Player Auction. Eventually, it was Kings XI Punjab that snapped up the big-hitting Jamaican at the last moment for his base price of Rs. 2 crore. 'Universe Boss' Gayle didn't disappoint his fans and entertained them with his typical hard-hitting batting in the recently-concluded IPL 2018. Gayle was the second highest run-getter for Kings XI Punjab this season. Gayle on Monday was seen teaching some dance moves to SunRisers Hyderabad opener Shikhar Dhawan during an award function.
