- Man of the Match:
Tall and imposing at the crease, Christopher Henry Gayle loves to carve through the covers off either foot, and has the ability to decimate the figures of even the thriftiest of opening bowlers. In a lean era for West Indian cricket - and fast bowling in particular - Gayle's pugnacious approach has become an attacking weapon in its own right. Who can forget his brilliant 117 from 57 balls, the highest T20 individual score, in the opening match against South Africa.
