PSL: Why Gayle vs Hafeez is making trends? Image: ESPN
Chris Gayle is absolutely an incredible player. But when facing Mohammad Hafeez, the smashing batsman has failed numerous notable times in the T20 format.
Let it be the T20 leagues or T20I; Gayle is unplayable on facing Hafeez’s spin bowls. The stats surrounding Twitter say the Universe Boss has faced Hafeez in the T20 format eleven times and could score only 22 runs at an average of 4.4.
The stats are old but get revolving on social forums after LQ vs QG’s current encounter is on the way and the off-spinner did not deliver majorly to the West Indies batter.

Fans believed it could have been the biggest of the accomplishment if the duo has come face to face in the happening game.
Nothing can be more shocking and mediocre from a world-class player having 1001 sixes in the format. Any team in which Gayle plays is known to gain 2x of its strength, but when it comes to facing Hafeez, Gayle has failed.

Notably, as LQ vs QG continues in PSL 6 at the National Stadium Karachi, the fans are weirdly reacting for not seeing Hafeez majorly available to bowl deliveries to the Gladiators’ batter.
If Pakistan’s player would have taken his wicket, it could have been a massive achievement but Gayle went on to smash a fifty that came up after 11 PSL innings.
