Meanwhile, on the work front, Chris Gayle opted out of Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2022 in a bid to focus on the T10 tournament, ‘6ixty', which will run from August 24 to 28 in Saint Kitts. According to reports, the West Indies cricketer will act as an ambassador for the tournament.

He said, “I am going for the shorter format this year. I am genuinely excited about the current innovations in the 6ixty and seeing how they play out. In particular, I am looking forward to the mystery team ball and hitting two sixes in the first 12 balls to unlock the third powerplay over.”
In 2020, Chris Gayle also missed the CPL tournament due to some personal reasons. He had previously also opted out of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 after leaving the 14th edition midway due to bio-bubble fatigue.
