The eccentric dance, based on a
wacky series of horse-riding moves, has become a worldwide sensation for South
Korean musician Park Jae-Sang, attracting over 295 million viewers on YouTube
this year.
Gayle's first Gangnam-style
celebration came in the match against Ireland, when he grabbed two wickets, and
he repeated it after dismissing England's Jonny Bairstow on Thursday in
Pallekele.
"I need a producer to
produce my gangnam music video...Know any? However I am shooting a amateur
gangnam style video tmrw...Will post video," Gayle wrote on Twitter.
Exiled England batsman Kevin
Pietersen tried to copy Gayle while he was carrying out his duties as a TV
commentator at the ongoing tournament and described it as "one of the most
interesting celebrations in cricket".
West Indies captain Darren
Sammy said Gayle is enjoying his cricket.
"Chris loves T20,"
said Sammy. "Since he came back he has been excellent for us, I just hope
he will continue. The fans love watching him play."
West Indies beat England by 15
runs in their first Super Eights match on Thursday and face Sri Lanka on
Saturday for a place in the semi-finals.
