IPL 2021: Chris Gayle feels PBKS are using him and getting rid of him, says Kevin Pietersen

IPL 2021: Chris Gayle cited bio-bubble fatigue and withdrew from the Punjab Kings squad for the remainder of the season on Thursday, September 30. Gayle will be part of West Indies's T20 World Cup squad.

Former England captain Kevin Pietersen said Chris Gayle must have not felt right in the Punjab Kings set-up before he decided to pull out from the remainder of IPL 2021, citing bio-bubble fatigue. Gayle made the decision to pull out of PBKS' remaining campaign on September 30, saying he needed to give himself a break before the T20 World Cup campaign for the West Indies.

Kevin Pietersen highlighted that PBKS did not give Chris Gayle a game on his 42nd birthday last month. Gayle played only two out of PBKS's three matches in the UAE leg of IPL 2021. The West Indies star did not make good use of the opportunity as he managed just 1 and 14 in the two said games.
