Chris Gayle made a return to the West Indies during the first showdown against IndiaVs West Indies 2019 ODI Series. With this game, Gayle beat legendary cricketer Brian Lara as a West Indies cricketer with most ODI matches. Meanwhile, the Caribbean island's team took part in this match against a backdrop of the brush during the three-match T20I series. The change in format has led to the return of star cricketers Chris Gayle and Jason Holder, the versatile take over as leader. However, the very important match had to wait because of the rain during a match-off in Guyana.
The referees finally started the game after almost two hours, making it a match at 43. But repeated showers reduce playing time. Meanwhile, India chose to play first after winning the draw and exploiting the poor conditions offered. Chris Gayle and Evin Lewis came out in the center of the field but struggled to score the goals, while Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mohammed Shami made things difficult for the West West End hitters. After three more interruptions, the host managed to score 54 points at the end of the 13 runs, losing Gayle's wicket which seemed completely short of socks.
Although Chris Gayle fought with the bat, he took an important step for his country. Gayle, who played 296 IDs, overtook Brian Lara to become the West Indies cricketer with a maximum of fifty on his matches. Shivnarine Chanderpaul (268), Desmond Haynes (238) and Carl Hooper (227) round out the list of the five most important IDOs for the Caribbean team.
