text: Chris Gayle is not adverse to bowling spin, so it perhaps unsurprising that the batsman has tried his hands to get something to turn again - albeit if not on a cricket pitch. The 35-year-old is currently in India ahead of this year's IPL tournament which starts on Wednesday. And it appears the destructive batsman is enjoying himself before attempting to help Royal Challengers Bangalore be crowned IPL champions for the first time in their history. Chris Gayle (left) uploaded an Instagram picture behind the DJ decks ahead of the IPL season on Tuesday . Gayle, pictured in 2012, will be hoping to win Royal Challengers Bangalore's first-ever IPL crown this year . Accompanied with the caption: 'Current situation... Believe me, I'm on the work again... #USL #RCB,' Gayle posted a picture via his Instagram account on Tuesday of himself behind some DJ decks. It's not the first time that Gayle has tried his hand musically. Last month the West Indies opener posted 'I'm not leaving' alongside an Instagram video of himself singing along with an amused singer in Sydney after rejecting speculation that he will quit international cricket. Gayle, laughing while attempting to hit the high notes as the singer covers Sam Smith's 'Stay With Me', is no doubt referring to the picturesque Opera Bar on Sydney Harbour at which he was clearly enjoying himself. Despite his off-the-field pleasures, Gayle will be hoping that he and his Bangalore team-mates are signing from the same hymn sheet when they start their IPL campaign. The Challengers travel to the Kolkata Knight Riders on Saturday looking to make amends for the past three years where they have missed out on the play-offs altogether. Possessing a potent batting order that includes Gayle, AB de Villers and Virat Kohli - the £1.17million purchase of Dinesh Karthik in addition could see them finally shake off their underachievers tag.
