"It's never too late to fight for the right cause or what you've experienced over the years! So much more to your story, Darren Sammy. Like I said, it's in the game," tweeted Gayle who has played for Kolkata Knight Riders, Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kings XI Punjab in the IPL.
The Windies cricket stalwarts have been quite vocal in extending support to the 'Black Lives Matter' campaign which has erupted to all parts of the world following the brutal death of George Floyd, an African-American, in police custody in United States.
However, Sammy further created quite the flutter in the cricketing world by claiming that a derogatory racial slur was used for him during his stint with SRH in 2013, 14 IPL editions.
Meanwhile, all-rounder Dwayne Bravo has expressed his displeasure to witness what has unfolded after the brutal death of George Floyd.
During an Instagram live chat with former Zimbabwe pacer Pommie Mbanga, Bravo said: "It is sad to see what is going on around the world. As a black man, we know the history of what black people have been through. We never ask for revenge, we ask for equality and respect. That is it. We give respect to others. Why is it that we are facing this over and over."
"I just want our brothers and sisters to know that we are powerful and beautiful. And at the end of the day, you look at some of the greats of the world, whether it is Nelson Mandela, Muhammad Ali, Michael Jordan we have had leaders who paved the way for us," he added.
The all-rounder further said that people should be respected for what they are and there should be equality in the world.
"Now enough is enough. We just want equality. We don't want revenge, war. We just want respect. We share love and appreciate people for who they are. That's what is most important."
