ABD is IPL GoAT, followed by Warner. Gayle had monumental highs and put God's fear in me, but was mid for plenty of seasons as well

If I make an IPL all time XI, I will find it tough to chose between Gayle and Warner for an opening spot but I can chose only 1.

For middle order, can’t really look beyond ABD.

Yeah, fans are willing to insult their own players just to defend AB. Such is the craze.

ABD is probably the most loved foreign player in India

Gayle and Warner averaged the same while Gayle was striking faster.

And just by looking at both of them, don't think Warner is definitively higher than Gayle. And Gayle's highs were just as high as it could get, don't think I could say the same for Warner.

The only thing Warner has over Gayle is the Pushpa.

AB is the GoAT tho, Gayle being in the same level.

But if I compare peak only, Gayle would take it for me.

Crazy loved. ABD is Great, my 2nd favourite player (whom I have seen extensively) as well.

Warner scored significantly more and was much more impactful and consistent.

Nah don't give consistency that much weightage in t20s.
And their RPI is very similar.
Gayle= 35.21
Warner=35.67

Gayle's highs are definitely higher, don't get what more impactful means (sounds like a very Bengali thing to say).

@capt_Luffy pretty sure you have your top 25 IPL batters prepared.


POST IT.

Don't Care enough for it tbh. Haven't watched closely for the last 4-5 seasons.

Gayle's lows are much lower, he had a number of seasons he did nothing. Also, Warner's best Season was better than Gayle's.

That's crazy (given that that's almost one fourth of your lifespan)
