West Indies' superstar Chris Gayle, who had travelled to Jamaica from the ongoing IPL for the birth of his daughter, has named his newborn 'Blush'.

Gayle's RCB teammate and great friend, Virat Kohli, immediately tweeted a response saying he would be proud to be called "Uncle Virat" by the West Indian's daughter.

Gayle's choice of name generated a mild controversy again, as during an interview at this year's Big Bash tournament, he had flirted with a Channel 10 presenter saying "Don't blush baby", words for which he was royally trolled on social media.
