Bindra Stadium here on Thursday.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nGayle struck a 63-ball 104, laced with 11 sixes and a boundary to set the jam-packed stadium on fire.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nOpting to bat, Punjab started on a cautious note as openers Lokesh Rahul (18) and Gayle stitched a 53-run partnership for the opening wicket.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nAfghan leg-spinner Rashid Khan drew first blood for Hyderabad, dismissing Rahul in the eighth over.&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nMedium pacer Siddarth Kaul provided another jolt to the hosts, packing back incoming batsman Mayank Agarwal (18) in the 11th over.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nGayle was then joined by Karun Nair (31 off 21 balls; 4x3, 6x1) and the duo shared a 85-run partnership for the third wicket, taking Punjab past the 150-run mark.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nBy then, Gayle had brought up his sixth IPL ton in just 58 deliveries, with a squeezy drive to point off Kaul and thereafter unleashing his trademark &#39;Baby in the arms&#39; celebration.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nPacer Bhuvaneshwar Kumar got rid-off Nair in the 18th over but Gayle continued to hamnmer every Hyderabad bowler.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nAustralian Aaron Finch&#39;s 14 not out off 6 balls in the final moments propelled Punjab to a massive total even as Gayle remained a spectator at the other end.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nFor Hyderabad, Bhuvneshwar, Rashid and Kaul bagged one wicket apiece.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nBrief Scores: Kings XI Punjab 193\/3 (Chris Gayle 104 not out, Karun Nair 31; Bhuvneshwar Kumar 1\/25) vs Sunrisers Hyderabad.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>IANS<\/p>\r\n",
