New Zealand batsman Kane Williamson has said that his team is all set to tackle the threat of West Indies swashbuckling batsman Chris Gayle during their quarterfinal clash on Saturday in Wellington.

Describing Gayle as one of the 'biggest match winners', Williamson said that it was important they put a little bit of focus on the big-hitting batsman, Stuff.co.nz reported.

Williamson further said that Gayle could take any team down in world cricket when he plays well.

However, Williamson believes that the nature of cricket is that, if one bowls well one could get anyone out, insisting that they have got players who are world class players who could take games away so it is going to be exciting game between two teams with match winners.
