Conditions, though, set by both.

Devastating West Indies batsman Chris Gayle is well known for his remarks within and outside the cricket ground.
Sometimes, his funny comments have received appreciation from fans, but often his words have crossed the limits and drawn criticism.
The left-hander was fined recently for flirting with Network Ten journalist Mel McLaughlin during a Big Bash League match.
But the infamous acts of the destructive batsman have never discouraged cricket lovers from admiring him. Gayle, who is now in India playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore team in Indian Premier League, has a huge fan base in the country.
On Wednesday, an Indian female fan of Gayle asked him for a date on Twitter.
“@henrygayle my heart is pumping only for u boss..! Can we go for a date?” a girl who goes by the Twitter handle Arohi asked him.
The cricketer accepted her request but with a condition.
“If u paying the bill, sure,” he replied.
Though the girl accepted the condition, she put out a rider herself.
“@henrygayle sure but in one condition u have to score a ton in next ipl match for rcb.! ” she replied.
It’s not yet known if the date materialized.
