West Indies cricketer Chris Gayle is facing fresh allegations of sexism after appearing to ask a female journalist how many black men she had slept with, months after he asked out a reporter during a live interview.
36-year-old Gayle was speaking to Charlotte Edwardes for an article that appeared in Saturday’s Times magazine, in which he made a string of lewd and sexist comments.
The article states that Gayle claimed he has "a very, very big bat, the biggest in the wooooorld,” before asking Edwardes: "You think you could lift it? You'd need two hands."
Gayle then went on to ask how many black men Edwardes has slept with as well as asking her if she had ever had a “t’eesome”, and added: "I bet you have. Tell me."
He added: "Women should have equality and they do have equality. They have more than equality. Women can do what they want. Jamaican women are very vocal. They will let you know what time it is, for sure.
"Women should please their man. When he comes home, food is on the table. Serious. You ask your husband what he likes and then you make it."
Gayle’s latest comments come just four months after he asked Australian reporter Mel McLaughlin out during a live interview, with the batsman later being fined 10,000 Australian dollars for his comments during Big Bash League match.
He asked McLaughlin if she wanted to go for a drink afterwards, before telling her “don’t blush baby” while McLaughlin continued with the interview. Addressing the incident, Gayle said: "It was a joke. She knew that. That's who I am, the joker."
