Chris Gayle lashed out at former Windies teammate Ramnaresh Sarwan and called him 'worse than coronavirus' for allegedly creating differences between the southpaw and Caribbean Premier League franchise Jamaica Tallawahs.


Gayle, who played his first four CPL seasons with Tallawahs, wasn't retained by Caribbean Premier League side and this fall-out led to him join St. Kitts for the next season.

Calling Sarwan 'a snake', Chris Gayle claimed that Sarwan wanted to take control of the franchise and that is why he engineered Gayle's ouster from the team.

"Sarwan, you are worse than the coronavirus right now," Gayle said in the video uploaded on his YouTube channel.



"What transpired with the Tallawahs, you have a big part to play because you and the owner are like this (very close). You were the one at my last birthday party here in Jamaica, giving big speech about how far we have come.

"Sarwan, you are a snake. You are so vindictive. You are so immature. You still stabbing people in the back. When are you planning to change? Don't even consider seeing the 'Universe Boss' and saying ‘Yo Chris' because I am telling you this straight up, that's it," he added.

After leaving Tallawahs, Chris Gayle played next two CPL seasons for St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots, respectively.
