Unlike West Indies all-rounder Dwayne Bravo, who had clarified that the match against Australia would serve as his last outing in maroon, Gayle had not made clear his plans of international retirement.
Former Pakistan skipper Shahid Afridi said Chris Gayle inspired a new generation of players.
“One of the greatest T20I players of all time! Congratulations on a wonderful career @henrygayle. You inspired a new generation of players all around the world, go well Universe Boss,” Afridi tweeted.

During the match, Gayle also hugged Australian batter, Mitchell Marsh, after dismissing him in their final Group 1 match of Super 12.
With this 8-wicket win, Aussies are now in a good position to make the ICC Men`s T20 World Cup 2021 semi-final. David Warner and Marsh played the innings of 89* and 53 respectively as Australia chased the target of 158 in 16.2 overs.
