Chris Gayle becomes saffron lover, Fans named him ‘Krishna Goyal’

In the 11th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), Chris Gayle of the West Indies is in the limelight for his bizarre-but-cute actions. He is winning hearts of his fans by the day. His selection was in suspense though; Preity Zinta took him into her side. Unsparingly, he has become the center force which is cruising the Kings Eleven Punjab to victory virtually in every match.

Amidst all this, Gayle has been posting photos in full Indian style. The Desi flavor of the Jamaican batsman has driven Indian cricket fans crazy. He is the talk of the show on social media. Some fans even suggested him to procure an Indian citizenship.

Before Gayle could look forward to their idea of settling in India, some fans even gave him a desi name- Krishna Goyal.

Since Gayle has been appearing in saffron attires, some have even advised him to join the Bhartiya janta Party (BJP) and support PM Modi in 2019 Loksabha elections. Netizens have a reason to talk the desi avatar of him as, more or less, Chris Gayle himself feels proud to be part of Indian Cricket. He has also partaken in many advertising films.

Some other social media lovers claim that his wife Natasha Berridge, who is an Indian too, has been pushing Gayle to join the Rastriya Swayam Sevak Sangh (RSS).
