His decision came on September 30. Apart from bubble fatigue, he needed to give himself a break before the T20 World Cup campaign for the West Indies.\u00a0The Punjab King&#8217;s batsman was looking to mentally refresh himself ahead of the big tournament in next month.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chris Gayle featured in only two out of PBKS&#8217;s three matches in the UAE leg of IPL 2021. In those 2 matches he managed to score just 1 and 14 runs.\u00a0It is also assumed that Gayle was not happy with Punjab Kings management after they did not include him in the playing 11 on his 42nd birthday last month. The West Indian has not been able to make an impact for Punjab. In IPL 2021, Chris Gayle managed to score just 193 runs in 10 matches at an average of little over 20.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>After his decision, Chris Gayle conveyed the following statement:<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #003366;\"><strong>&#8220;I wish to mentally recharge and refresh myself.
