Pollard shuts his mouth, and literally!

Kieron Pollard kept going at Chris Gayle, opening for the Royal Challengers Bangalore, from the time his close friend set foot on the pitch. Constantly throwing some friendly banter, Pollard made sure Gayle appeared distracted and doesn’t pull off the trigger that could have made life difficult for the visitors.

 

While Gayle had no problem with the verbal warfare that is routine between them, on-field umpires seemed to have had enough and they asked Pollard to keep his mouth shut.
