Kolkata:
After blazing his way to an unbeaten century off only 55 balls, Chris Gayle didn't show any inhibitions in admitting that he is an entertainer whom the people would love to watch.
"I am an entertainer. When you don't entertain people they curse you. I know it was tough luck for KKR but I hope the crowd enjoyed the sixes that I hit. I have always enjoyed playing at the Eden Gardens. Ultimately, it's the big hits that crowds come to see in T20," Gayle, who wasn't retained by Shah Rukh KHan co-owned franchise told at the post-match presentation ceremony.
For someone, who went unsold at the IPL auctions, it must have been satisfying to go up and hug KKR co-owner Jay Mehta at the post-match ceremony.
