This is one record which he will be very proud to own. And he is the only man who could have done it. We are talking about Royal Challengers Bangalore's explosive opener Chris Gayle who needs just one six to complete a century of sixes in the Indian Premier League history. He will be the first man to achieve this record.
The tall Jamaican can be called a six-hitting machine. No ground is bigger if Gayle starts firing. And he is a nightmare for any bowler around the world. So far, Gayle has smashed 99 sixes in IPL history and the hundred is likely to arrive at his home ground, M Chinnaswamy Stadium when RCB take on Deccan Chargers on Sunday night.
Gayle, who first represented Kolkata Knight Riders without much success, has been in supreme form after moving to RCB.
In 37 IPL matches so far, including both KKR and RCB, he has to his name 99 sixes. His first six in IPL was hit against Deccan on April 19, 2009 in Cape Town. It will be a great feat for him to complete the 100th six against the same opposition.
Of his 99 sixes so far, Gayle hit 26 for KKR and 73 for RCB. The maximum he hit in an innings was nine against Kings XI Punjab last year in Bangalore.
Gayle's first six was hit off RP Singh (Deccan) and the 99th off Abhishek Nayar (Punjab) on May 2.
He has played 16 matches for KKR and 21 so far for RCB. The Bangalore franchisee has always depended on Gayle to provide those explosive starts. Whenever he has fired with the bat, RCB have won.
Legspinner Piyush Chawla has suffered the most at the hands of Gayle. The Jamaican has hit him for seven sixes. He tops the list of bowlers who have been annihilated by Gayle. The next in the pack is Rahul Sharma, Rajat Bhatia and Suresh Raina who have conceded five sixes each to Gayle. In all, 45 bowlers have been at the receiving end of Gayle's sixes.

FIVE Indian Premier League players have been suspended from cricket as fresh fixing allegations hit the game and threatened to further tarnish a competition already dogged by controversy.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) moved swiftly after a sting operation by a local TV channel highlighted alleged fixing and corruption in domestic matches.
The five - T P Sudhindra, Mohnish Mishra, Abhinav Bali, Amit Yadav and Shalabh Srivastava - are all first-class players, but have yet to break into international cricket.

The inquiry will be carried out by former police officer Ravi Sawani, who has previously served on the International Cricket Council's Anti-Corruption and Security Unit, Shukla added.
Hindi-language India TV showed Sudhindra, of the Deccan Chargers, allegedly agreeing to bowl pre-arranged no-balls in a local amateur match, while Kings XI Punjab player Srivastava was reportedly heard boasting he could do the same in the IPL.
The channel claimed it had taped seamer Srivastava telling its reporters he could deliver a no-ball in the IPL for one million rupees (about $US18,500).

``The voice which suggests that I am ready to spot-fix is not mine,'' he told the Indian Express newspaper. ``I am ready to clarify this to the BCCI, my team owners and the IPL governing council.
``I will definitely file a case against them.''
Another Kings XI Punjab player, Yadav, was taped saying he had reason to believe that last season's IPL match against Delhi Daredevils was fixed, but could not substantiate his claim.
Mishra and Bali also featured in the sting, which India TV editor-in-chief Rajat Sharma said had been worked on for almost a year.
``We stand by our story and will co-operate fully with any investigation the BCCI plans to carry out,'' Sharma told reporters.
Sudhindra has played in three IPL matches this year and Mishra played one game for Pune Warriors, but Srivastava, Yadav and Bali have not featured in the current tournament.
The IPL, which began in 2008 as a high-octane mix of glamour, entertainment, rich purses for players and the excitement of slam-bang T20 cricket, has endured a difficult ride over the past four years.
The tournament, which features world stars playing for rich franchise owners, is already being investigated by government agencies for alleged fraud and foreign exchange violations.
Its founder Lalit Modi, who was suspended from the league in 2010, is holed up in London facing Indian government and BCCI charges of misappropriation of funds.
Three Pakistan players - Test captain Salman Butt and fast bowlers Mohammad Aamer and Mohammad Asif - plus their agent Mazhar Majeed were last year found guilty of spot-fixing during the 2010 Lord's Test against England and jailed

Sachin Tendulkar's brand-new image,
the sachin tendulkar
In the past more than two decades he let his bat do all the talking. Today, as the world speculates the retirement of perhaps cricket's greatest batsman, Sachin Tendulkar is presenting a new image of himself that's built outside cricket field.
Call it after-cricket brand Sachin: he has agreed to become a Parliamentarian and is reportedly playing a cameo in Bollywood flick Ferrari Ki Sawari.
So will brand Sachin outlive cricketer Sachin? Experts say it will, although the new roles bring new responsibilities and challenges.
"He is a highly desired role model for brands-a non-controversial achiever and that image will go beyond his playing years," says ad filmmaker Prahlad Kakkar, who has worked with the cricketer on several advertisements.
Sachin Tendulkar, who came into the Indian team as a 16-year-old prodigy in 1989 just before India started the reforms process in 1991, has broken almost every batting record over the past 23 years in a controversy-free career marked by impeccable record on and off the field. And he has been part of many successful campaigns for several national and multinational brands.
Now, he is 39 and there is not much left for him to achieve in a cricket field after having won the World Cup last year and scored his hundredth international century this year. While he is not yet talking about retirement, everybody else is. And his recent moves, particularly that of becoming a Rajya Sabha member, are seen as his retirement plans.
"I believe there is a new brand that Sachin sees for himself after 40, but I don't see Sachin the cricketer in his new brand," says Madhukar Kamath, group CEO and managing director at Mudra Group.
EXPANDING BOUNDARIES
While Sachin's Rajya Sabha nomination might have political undertones with the Congress allegedly trying to capitalise on his brand equity and diffusing the Bharat Ratna issue, the cricketer is clearly exploring his personal boundaries. This is true even with the movie role that he has reportedly accepted.
Historian Ramachandra Guha says that the change is more about Sachin's public figure than an advertiser's brand. "Advertisers will eventually find younger icons, but he will have to find a new role as a public figure," Guha says.
He feels that Sachin must attend Parliament as regularly as possible despite his busy schedule. "He must learn and use this platform to talk about issues," says Guha.

Sachin’s likes red wine says brett lee
Sachin was the India captain in your debut series, in 1999-00. Were you overawed when you bowled to him for the first time?
A I was 13 when Sachin made his debut for India and I’d watch him on the TV... I was still quite a few years away from playing Test cricket... So, from a distance, I watched him grow as a person, perform at the top level as an amazing athlete... The first competitive match that I bowled to Sachin was, of course, the first Test of that series (at the MCG). But I’d bowled to him once before that, for the Prime Minister’s XI, in Canberra.
You got Sachin out very cheaply (2)...
Yes... He’d nicked and straightaway walked, not waiting for the umpire to give him out. I picked up four wickets in that 50-over match.
But were you nervous on bowling to Sachin for the first time on your Test debut?
I was nervous, I was anxious... I was everything when Steve Waugh threw the ball at me... There I was about to bowl to one of my heroes, somebody whose career I’d followed for a decade. What helped is that, in the lead-up, I’d played a Shield game at the Waca, where I’d bowled really fast... I took inspiration from that.
The last time that you bowled to Sachin was during the recent tri-series in Australia. A dozen years after first having bowled to him, what’s it like today?
I break into a giggle, tell myself ‘here we go again’... Look, there’s such an aura about Sachin... He’s completed 22 years at the international level, which is some longevity... Actually, Sachin’s like the amazing red wine (Penfolds Grange) back in Australia, which gets better with age. Indeed, it ages beautifully.
What’s most special about Sachin?
I look at how sportsmen are off the field too... Sachin has remained so humble... I know India fairly well now and know that it can get difficult for us cricketers, fans want to get so close to you... It must be 20 times more difficult for Sachin... Hats off to Sachin for having remained such a gentleman, no matter what the pressure... What he’s done for India is amazing and fans live and die for him. When someone special comes in to bat, you feel his presence... One gets that feeling when Sachin takes guard... You sense
that extra energy. You can’t measure it, but it’s there. Being in the opposition, one tries to get him out, but there’s so much respect for him, respect which has been well-earned. I guess you can count on one hand the number of people who’ve tried to sledge Sachin. That’s the respect he enjoys... He’s an athlete who wants to win. I, at least, don’t have an issue with that. At the same time, you’ve got to be a gracious loser.
Sachin will soon be a member of Parliament. What’s your take?
I’m sure whatever Sachin does, he’ll do it brilliantly.
Youngsters can learn so much from Sachin...
Absolutely... What they can learn the most is that anything is possible... Sachin’s taken India by storm, he’s got the most number of runs and hundreds, has won a World Cup... Is the greatest batsman to have walked the earth... He’s known across the world... Sachin was 16 when he first played for India, so 16-year-olds can dream big... Set their sights high. If you want to look at the perfect cover drive, in all formats, look at Sachin. The ball is presented with such a clean face of the bat.
The last one... The greatest debate continues... Where do you place Sachin?
(Grins) It’s hard to compare eras... However, for me, Sachin’s the greatest batsman, Wasim Akram and Glenn McGrath the greatest fast bowlers, Shane Warne the greatest spinner and my KKR teammate Jacques Kallis the greatest cricketer.

West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee today described Sachin Tendulkar as a 'golden boy' as the state government and the Cricket Association of Bengal jointly felicitated the senior Indian batsman for completing one hundred international centuries.
The felicitation ceremony was held at the Eden Gardens just ahead of the IPL clash between Kolkata Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians.
Congratulating Tendulkar on behalf of the government, Mamata said, "He is a golden boy. That's why we have gifted you a golden bat and ball. We salute your achievement. We are so proud of you."
Tendulkar greeted the jam-packed Eden crowd first in Bengali by saying 'Bhalo Achi' and then added, "Thank you all for your support I've seen over the years. It has been a pleasure playing. I will cherish these memories. I hope you continue to support me and the Indian team as you always have."

CAB boss Jagmohan Dalmiya also joined them as Tendulkar was bestowed with gifts, including a traditional 'Uttario' (scarf).
Dalmiya also handed the cricketer a memento that read: 'Congratulations Sachin Tendulkar for 100 international centuries'.
Mamata had recently suggested Tendulkar's name for the highest civilian honour -- Bharat Ratna -- in his congratulatory message when the Mumbai stalwart had notched the feat in Dhaka.
The majestic Eden was decked up with giant Tendulkar banners that read 'CAB salutes Sachin'.
