Chris Gayle 317 vs South Africa 2005

Chris Gayle scores his first and only triple century against South Africa in the flattest of all tracks - St John's Antigua.

Gayle just smashed every bowler on show racing away to his century and then slowing down slightly to get to his double and triple.


This match holds the record for most centuries in a Test match.

Shamsmi How do you know it is his only.

Yes it is unlikely that he will do it again, but he is a damn good batsman and there is nothing to stop him

[shamsmi]

he is stopping himself. He has underachieved for the talent he has.

And ur right, i shud have said only to date :)

Unbelievable power, perhaps the hardest hitter of a ball in cricket, def up there with Afridi and Hayden.

This is like the 3rd Chris Gayle video I've watched with you talkin shit about him. Now i wonder, do you just go around searching his name so you can drop dumbass comments

@hardikvyas21 You forgot RUSSELL....good batter and bowler

Please log on to: lgpeopleschoice (dot) com (use the symbol for dot instead in the browser - should be one word) and vote for CHRIS GAYLE to become the ICC People's Choice Award for the year 2011.

Fans, he has been through a lot and this would definitely help him to win over the WICB directors heart to bring him back in the WI team.

You can make a difference! So do not delay. Vote now!

@shamsmi Believe u me, If WICB can get their act right what a squad they have :

Batters : Gayle, Edwards, Barath, Sars, Chanders, DM BRAVO, Nash, Simmons..

Fast Bowlers: Roach, Edwards, Taylor (All 90+mph), Rampaul, Powell

All rounders : Sammy, Bravo, Pollard

Spinners : Bishoo, Benn, Martin

@oshawaxpress Looks like someone came onto Youtube today to see Chris Gale get a decent score for once ay? Can't handle the West Indies losing so badly in the World Cup ay? Yeah too bad I didn't find the time to give Chris Gayle my pearls of wisdom to help him win a match for once? Hey Einstein did you not read the title of this video? This was a score from 2005! I'm not the one living in the past.

[oshawaxpress]

@jamezjamiezpro - so, someone who 'isn't cut out for Test cricket' scores a triple Test Match century against a powerful South African team. Weird logic. Pity you weren't there to give Graeme Smith your pearls of wisdom, would have saved the Proteas a tough time in the field. Then, 'certainly a handy 20/20 & 50/50 player', yep, you win the 'Absurd Understatement of the Month' Award. Congratulations.

@azarimanka Well he did it again!!!!
