When the West Indies won its sole World Twenty20 title in 2012 it famously celebrated by performing "Gangnam Style". If it triumphs in India it'll be dancing to a different tune. Big-hitting batsman Chris Gayle performed a little jig at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium Wednesday after smashing his way to a 47-ball century that included 11 sixes in the Windies' win over England. "The new jig is called 'Champion'," West Indies coach Phil Simmons explained to reporters afterward. "That's the dance from Dwayne Bravo's new single." All-rounder Bravo launched the song, called "Champion", in Mumbai earlier this week. The lyrics reference various sporting heroes and political icons and includes the line "Everybody knows Gayle is a champion". It's not Bravo's first venture into music. Last year he released a music video to coincide with the Indian Premier League titled "Chalo! Chalo!", meaning "Let's Go" in Hindi. Gayle led his West Indies teammates in a celebratory "Gangnam Style" dance when they defeated Sri Lanka in a low-scoring final four years ago and few would bet against more dancing following the final on April 3. The left-hander, nicknamed "Gayle Force" and "Gayle Storm", hit one monstrous six after another against England as he lit up the sixth edition of the World T20 Wednesday during his side's six-wicket triumph. Simmons said the 36-year-old was up there with West Indies batting great Viv Richards as one of the most destructive batsman in the history of cricket. "I think the only person in my time I would put him with is Sir Vivian because Viv used to go out and destroy attacks like that too," he said. The gum-chewing Richard ripped apart bowling attacks with a swagger that is part of cricketing folklore and the now 64-year-old Antiguan is considered a benchmark for attacking batting. A number of batsmen over the years have gone on to achieve more than Richards did but very few have been able to strike as much fear in the minds of bowlers. Gayle's unbeaten 100 Wednesday, his second century at a World Twenty20, helped paper over the cracks of West Indies' tumultuous build-up. The 2012 champion was embroiled in a contract dispute with their board, which threatened to send a second string team to the tournament. The victory over 2010 champion England, almost without breaking sweat, underlined its status as one of the most dangerous teams in the tournament. "You think it is a big statement, but there is more to come," Simmons promised.
