Gayle who is making a return in the national squad after a long time since his ouster on developing problems with the management, failed to play a big innings, which he is so famous for and faltered after scoring an innings of 34 runs, becoming the first
casualty of the day.
Middlesex struck quick as they nabbed the wicket of Simmons at a time when the West Indians had amassed 67 runs on the board. The batsman found his way off the field after hammering an innings of 23 runs.

of 18 runs off 16 deliveries before losing his wicket.
It was then time for all-rounder http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DJ-Bravo-c1379 to take the field as he bulldozed the bowling side by jabbing a blitz of an innings of 40 runs off just 21 deliveries to play a vital role in helping his side amass a stinging total on the board.
