A man to watch out for in IPL-6

                   

                                 

		After yet another Gayle storm in Bangalore, Virat Kohli, the Bangalore captain said that his team does not mind being seen as too dependent on Chris Gayle. The feisty all-rounder gave Bangalore the edge to clinch a last ball thriller against Mumbai by 2 runs in their opening match on Thursday.                    Looking back to IPL-5 Chris Gayle was the fate changer for RCB and the most impacted batsman of  IPL-5. He ended up as the leading run-scorer in the round-robin stages of the IPL scoring 733 runs with a decent average of  61.08 and a fearsome strike rate of 160.74. Gayle scored 31% of his team's total bat runs during the tournament - Royal Challengers Bangalore scored the second-highest number of runs in their league games, with 2351. Gayle's stats in wins was especially awesome: his scores in the seven matches that Royal Challengers won were 81, 87, 4, 26, 82*, 57 and 128* - 465 runs at an average of 93, and a strike rate of 162.58. In defeats, he scored 268 runs in seven innings at an average of 38.28 and a strike rate of 157.64, which are pretty exceptional numbers by themselves. Gayle has also struck 59 of his team's 117 sixes, which is marginally more than 50%.
