Bangalore: In what can be termed as a smart move, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) have roped in West Indian all-rounder Chris Gayle as replacement for their injured paceman Dirk Nannes.
The swashbuckling opener and off-spinner landed in the city on Tuesday and it is learnt that his participation in Indian Premier League 4 is subject to the final clearance from BCCI.
Australia's Nannes, who suffered a side strain during the home match against Mumbai Indians last week, has already flown back home as his recovery period is around five weeks.
Gayle, who surprisingly went unsold in the IPL auction, had carried a base price of $400,000, the highest bracket in the auction and the 31-year-old was eligible as a replacement for Nannes who was bought by the Bangalore franchisee for $650,000.
