“Kiss My Black….” Chris Gayle Bashes Critics in Social Media Rant

Former West Indies captain and prolific batsman Chris Gayle has delivered a ‘bashing’ to critics following his exit from the Australian Big Bash T20 League.

Gayle recently set a new Big Bash League record by scoring a half-century from just 12 balls.

Following his recording breaking feat, the talented cricketer was still batting, seemingly taking aim at ex-Australia Test opener Chris Rogers and former England skipper Andrew Flintoff .

Gayle was recently fined $10,000 for making “inappropriate remarks” during a live television interview.

  

Gayle took to social media platform Instagram today to settle a few scores.

See his post below:

“The real ppl (people) who stand by Gayle worldwide through the so call BS against me in the media, Thank You!,” Gayle posted in social media-speak on his Instagram account this afternoon shortly after the release of a more measured, conciliatory interview with him on the Renegades website.

“To the MEDIA, Thank You all so! (sic)

“The Haters, I Thank you even more,” he added with a high-10 emoticon.

“I think a lot of past and present cricketers who smile in front my face could’ve have there (sic) say In the public when my so call issue was going on, but y’all don’t have the BALLs to stand firm when it matters.

“But yet when u see me you’re like, Chris that’s BS against you, it was blown out of proportion.

  

Adding “smh” – social media speak for “shaking my head”, Gayle added “Don’t tell me, tell the media and public!

“The past cricketer who say I make myself look like a chop, the other who claim I was no good to the youngsters while playing for the thunder, the next one who said he expect that sort of behavior from Chris – Y’all can kiss my ‘Black Rass’.”

Flintoff had earlier made the following tweet:
