Dawson and Monye: Haskell is England's Chris Gayle
Former England players Ugo Monye and Matt Dawson believe James Haskell is England's "Chris Gayle". This comes after head coach Eddie Jones revealed that he thinks there is "one Chris Gayle character" in his current England squad.
Jones also admitted he admires the West Indies' batsman but argued that every dressing room could only cope with one "Gayle-type character"
Monye who played over 150 times for Harlequins said: "It's got to be James Haskell hasn't it? He's an extrovert and I think every squad does need a James Haskell but not too many more than just the one."
Dawson who played in the 2003 World Cup winning side added: "I've been running my finger through the England squad and it stops at James Haskell. I look for another one and can't really seen one."
