Windies hard-hitter Chris Gayle rewrote history books as he smashed his 24th ODI ton against England in the first ODI in Barbados on Wednesday. Gayle’s 135-run innings included 12 towering sixes and he now takes the top spot in the list of most sixes scored across formats. Gayle has 477 sixes to his name now and he eclipsed former Pakistan cricketer Shahid Afridi’s record of 476 sixes on the international arena.
