We depend on Gayle to an extent:
Royal Challengers Bangalore bowling coach Venkatesh Prasad today said his side depended on Chris Gayle to an extent but still have the firepower to win matches even without the explosive West Indian batsman.
The inspirational Gayle -- who led his team to a shock 128-run first-Test victory at the end of December 2007, impressing throughout with his leadership and brutal stroke-making -- will return home on Tuesday after suffering what has since proved to be a tour-ending thumb injury in his team's second-Test loss in Cape Town earlier this month.
