During his time with Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Gayle was in top form, spending seven seasons with the franchise and even earning a place in their Hall of Fame—leading many to assume he would lean towards supporting RCB.
However, he also represented Punjab Kings for four seasons between 2018 and 2021, indicating a connection to that side as well. With both teams vying for their first-ever IPL title, the final promises to be a landmark match in the tournament's history.
