Food poisoning keeps Gayle out of line up for struggling KXIP
According to team coach Anil Kumble, the Universe Boss was down to play against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, who won the game by 69 runs despite a belligerent 37-ball 77 from Nicholas Pooran.
“Chris Gayle was going to play today’s match but he is sick. He is down with food poisoning that’s why he isn’t in playing eleven,” Kumble told commentators during the game.
Gayle has not featured for Kings XI Punjab that has only won one of six games so far this season.
