West Indies all-rounder Chris Gayle will reportedly return to South African domestic Twenty20 side Dolphins Cricket or KwaZulu Natal Cricket (Pty) for the country's domestic T20 competition, to take place early next year.

Gayle, who has scored 5 752 runs in T20 cricket - the most by any batsman - at an average of 43.9 and a remarkable strike-rate of 151.84, had departed early from the competition in the African nation due to the injury in the 2011/12 season.

According to Sport24, Gayle said that he is excited to have joined the Dolphins for their 2014 T20 campaign as he feels that he has some unfinished business given that he did not get to play for the side in 2012 due to injury.

The 2014 domestic T20 tournament will run from January 8 to February 9, the report added.
