Kevin Pietersen and Chris Gayle are widely regarded as two of the biggest hitters in cricket, and the pair have gone head-to-head in a special challenge to promote the Caribbean Premier League.

Gayle, who plays his international cricket for the West Indies but has recently enjoyed a short stint at Somerset, took on Surrey batsman KP in an attempt to hit a drone out of the sky.

Firing balls from a machine high into the air, the winner of the 'Drone Down' challenge was the first man to smash the drone to the ground - not an easy task for the mere mortal.

Pietersen and Gayle, though, are exceptionally talented cricketers and, although it took a few tries to find the target, the drone eventually hit the ground.

At the start of the challenge, Pietersen expressed some concerns, admitting: 'It's a very small target. Accuracy and skill might be part of some people's game, but they're not part of my game, and they're certainly not part of this big man's game.
