New Delhi: There was a wave of enthusiasm and anticipation after Punjab Kings (PBK), which announced its lineup for the IPL 2021 struggle against Rajasthan Royals (RR). West Indian superstar Chris Gayle and his elder countrymen Nicholas Goran were designed to feature together, discussing how many sixes can be broken. However, this landscape turned out to be quite anticlint, as former South African cricketer Chris Morris dismissed Gorn for a golden duck. The fate of the 29 -year -old deteriorated from that point as he managed to score just 28 runs in seven matches, recording four ducks. Gorn, who entered the reputation of someone who broke sixes to enter IPL 2021, managed to hit just six during that period.
The wicketkeeper-better failed to turn around in the remaining matches, ending IPL 2021 with 85 runs in 12 outing. Gorn broke only five sixes throughout the campaign, recording a strike rate of 111.84 and an average of 7.72. PBK opted to release the West Indian cricketer at the end of the season, which raised questions about his future in the IPL.
However, the 29-year-old has pulled a sensational return-one who can boast very few people as a real game-screener. Gorn currently leads Tally for the most sixes IPL 2025Smash 34 in 10 matches. MI Batter Suryakumar Yadav is second in the list in 11 matches with 26 sixes. Gorn has been the top run-colon for Lucknow Super Veterans (LSG), scoring 404 runs at a strike rate of 203.01.

Do you believe that Gariban can break the record for the most runs in T20 matches?
Former-west indies cricketer Adrian Barath, the youngest player in his country, who scored a Test century, even said that it is very possible for Gorn to become the first cricketer to score 250 in T20 matches.
Gorn can get anything in every format. he is able.
“Pratibha is not found anywhere you find anywhere. They have found that we have seen in the case of top players like Sachin Tendulkar and Brian Lara in connection with the combination of talent and hard work. At the same time, they also had a very strong base. The poor’s feet were very powerful, like a horse. The way he was with great intentions, he was influenced by him, thrown around his body.
After the change of Gariban after the IPL 2021 defeat, one of the major factors behind Gariban has been supported by West Indian cricketers Kieron Pollard and Sunil Narin, with which he shares a close bond.
“Pollard and Narin have supported them through a thick and thin.
“Gorn also has a lot of respect for him. I remember a match where all the West Indian cricketers were in controversy with Trinidadian. I went to Pollard and asked him to ask someone to leave in this difficult situation. He called the poor and said, ‘Go and run three lap. You are not playing today.’ Gorn just said exactly instead of creating an disturbance, “he said.
Another important reason behind Gorn’s dominance, especially in IPL 2025, is a decision to promote it in number three positions. The West Indian cricketer has flourished in the role, which gives the maximum benefit of freedom provided by the slot.
“Gorn is best suited to bat at number three. Whoever takes a call to send him to that position, deserves an award. It has changed his batting style. Gorn is now more responsible. When you go to bat at number five, six, or seven, it does not help you develop as a batsman,”
“Gorn has a lot of confidence, and deprives him of the opportunity to express himself to face a limited number of balls. I remember a conversation between him and his first coach Dasharatha Maharaj who asked the ball to hit the ball only to fall into his area. He just replied, ‘Coach, I have zones.” This is a sign of his confidence level, “said Mahabir.
“Pollard and I will always discuss that Gorn should bat at number three, especially in T20. We tried and sent orders at number three or four to give him quality time,” Furlon shared.
Former PBKS batting advisor and power-touching coach Julian Wood has told clarity that Gorn has received about his batting position-and at number three, his consecutive runs-a great step.
“Now he now has clarity about his role after being played in every slot from number one to seven. With clarity, your technique has confidence and confidence, which is able to focus on hitting the ball in the best way. The role of confidence in cricket. The ball, like Sachin and Virat Kohli, like Sachin and Virat Kohli.
Gorn is praised for his determination and dedication, often drawing the match -winning performance in difficult situations. However, no on-field challenge is compared to the deadly road accident left in 2015.
“I was in a lot of pain. I just wanted them to exclude me,” Gorn shared once while discussing the collision.
The doctors were uncertain whether he would play again at any time, even suggests that it could be difficult to walk. But Gorn rejected the obstacles.
Mahabir said, “I went to meet him at the hospital. He was always very confident. I was afraid that he would not be so strong after the accident and he was also worried about the weight he had kept. He lost it easily and overcome all physical and mental challenges- just like Rishabh Pant,” Just like Rishabh Pant, “Mahabir said.
While most of the players will rest back in the game after such trauma, Gorn returned more Hunger than ever – Ferlongy played an important role in his return.
Furlon said, “Gorn returned with purpose and full attention, despite the accident became even stronger.
He said, “He always provided himself for practice and worked extensively on his fitness. Pollard and Narin had approached me to play Gorn – they knew their talent and wanted him to make full use of it. Gorn had his own private trainer, who directed him with a fitness program that he followed religiously,” he said.
Although it is widely popular on social media for its humorous responses, when expectations are not fulfilled, Gorn is fiercely competitive and cruelly honest.
“Varse’s team lost the final of a tournament, where they had helped the team take them to their shoulders through every phase. They did not score in the final as they were mentally tired. Gorn was not happy with the performance of his companions and expressed his disappointment in a outbreak. He is extremely competitive and wants to win at any cost.
“No match is over until Gorn is at the crease. He went out to bat once when his team was down and needed 200 runs. We finally won the match very comfortably. Gorn is highly impressive-like Kris Gayle-but more than 360-degree players.”
