Gayle smashes fastest T20 half-century

Jan 18, 2016 - 11:16 AM Chris Gayle has smashed the equal fastest half-century in Twenty20 cricket history, the West Indian star slamming 51 runs off just 12 balls in Melbourne Renegades' Big Bash League clash with Adelaide Strikers.

Gayle hit seven sixes - four in a row off the first over of his side's innings at Etihad Stadium - to equal the record set by India's Yuvraj Singh in 2007 against England, in Durban.

He was dismissed, caught behind by Tim Ludeman off the bowling of Travis Head, for 56 off just 17 balls at a strike rate of 329.41.
