New Delhi, April 6 (CRICKETNMORE): While cricketers like India skipper Virat Kohli are regularly seen hitting the gym and lifting weights to work on their fitness, someone like Universe Boss Chris Gayle is hardly seen doing weight training. But at 39 years and 197 days, he is one of the oldest players plying his trade in the Indian Premier League. So how does he match the fitness of players who are almost 8-10 years younger to him?

Speaking to IANS, Kings XI Punjab physio Brett Harrop revealed that Yoga was one of the secrets behind Gayle still managing to maintain his fitness and helping him take on the best of bowlers with aplomb on the cricket field. In fact, even in the ongoing IPL, he has shown form with scores of 79, 20 and 40 before he missed the last game against Delhi Capitals.
