Veteran Australia all-rounder Shane Watson has said he was not surprised by Chris Gayle's behaviour, adding that the controversial remarks made by the Jamaican during an interview with a female presenter were 'fairly expected'. Gayle was fined $10,000 by his Big Bash League side Melbourne Renegades for his on-air mid-match comments to Channel 10 journalist Mel McLaughlin during a BBL match. "I have played against Chris for a long time, since I started really, and that behaviour is fairly expected," Watson was quoted as saying by 'Daily Telegraph'. "People who know Chris Gayle will know those are the sort of things he can do at times, and at an inappropriate time, obviously it gets him into a fair bit of trouble," he added.
