00:00The crowd had to wait for some time before they realised what had happened, typical Chris
00:11Gale shot.
00:12Now let's just analyse that delivery, Sean Pollock is normally pretty spot on to left
00:17handers, it's perhaps a little bit short but the line isn't too bad.
00:21Chris Gale has got this rare ability of just standing nice and tall, he's around about
00:266 foot 3, 6 foot 4 and just using power.
00:30That will go all the way, whether it's slow out there or not, that's a boundary.
00:41And a stylish one as well, it's a trademark Chris Gale shot.
00:54Second boundary for Chris, that's straight down the ground, powerfully hit, it's gotten
01:17them jumping, it took some air out of the ball as well.
01:25There's the 50 for Chris Gale, no real emotion from Chris, he knows what job he's got to
01:34do up there in the middle, just a quick little wave of the bat.
01:46And there's no one there, because of the stacked up side field, that is a wonderful
01:50stroke.
01:51That's gone for 6, off the back foot, on top of the Greenwich and Haines stand, mighty
02:02hit by Gale.
02:05That's the shorter side of the ground, but that would have been 6 on most grounds anywhere
02:13in the world over the mid-wicket region, you don't want to be bowling that length to
02:20Chris Gale.
02:21Pulled away, vicious 3 for 4, this is a big over for the West Indies, that's the first
02:34boundary from the bat, we've had 2 which haven't come off the bat, one for buys and one for
02:40wides.
02:41There's that short ball again, at that pace he's still pulling off the front, 18 runs
03:00have come off that over, 10 in the over before it, they're 150 now for 3.
03:10Good shot, nicely played, short of boundary, picked the gap, 4 runs, good shot indeed,
03:14important boundary that one.
03:16End of the over, a big one for the West Indies, 10 from it, 163 for 3.
03:25And this is the value of Chris Gale, picks the gap, hits it all along the ground, through
03:30his very thick, very slow outfield.
03:33There it is, 3 figures to Chris Gale, number 10 in the one-night game for Chris, the second
03:44against South Africa as well, he has played very intelligently today, not the typical
03:49Gale knock but I love it here in Bridgetown.
03:55Important innings from Chris Gale, he's brought the crowd alive.
04:05He's hit that one a long way and that's in on the stand, it's over the top, 6 runs, brilliant
04:12stuff, magnificent hit from Chris Gale.
04:25Gale giving that one the full treatment, out of the middle of the bat.
04:34Straight, that's very straight, and that's gone for 4.
04:40That is very good placement.
04:43That's what I'm talking about.
04:46Go on, take him, Sean Pollock has got the catch, Chris Gale is not rushing off the park,
04:56he has been given out, so Andre now again has picked up a wicket at a crucial time.
05:08Fine innings by Chris Gale, comes to an end, left it brave.
05:16Well taken, low and close to the ground by Sean Pollock.
05:27Chris Gale, caught Pollock bold now, Weston is 2.58 for 6, 27 to go from 26 balls.
