Swashbuckling West Indian batsman Chris Gayle will play for Pokhahra Rhinos in Nepal's domestic T20 tournament, 'Everest Premier League', which begins from 29 February in Kathmandu.
The 40-year-old Gayle, who is nicknamed 'Universe Boss', announced his decision on Twitter.
Gayle is yet to officially announce his retirement from international cricket. He last played for West Indies in what was expected to be his farewell game in the third ODI in Port-of-Spain against India in August last year.
His last T20I was in March 2019 against England in Basseterre. He has not played a Test since 2014.
Gayle's last action in a franchise-based cricket was in Bangladesh Premier League for Chattogram Challengers early this month.
