Speaking at the event, Gayle said, “Namaskar India… I just want to thank (Pratap) Sarnaik for having me here. It's a pleasure to be here and thank you for the warm welcome. Regarding the league and the programme, when I first got the call, they said, ‘Chris, we want you to be the Brand Ambassador for the league.’ I asked, ‘Okay, what T20 league is that?’ And they said, ‘No, it’s not cricket, this has nothing to do with cricket.’ They showed me a video of what the Pro Govinda League was all about, and I was really, truly excited to be part of something new.”
