Graeme Smith

Herschelle Gibbs

Herschelle Gibbs
Gibbs was the architect of the chase with a career-best 175.

A talented batsman who carried controversies along in his pocket, Gibbs was the architect of the chase, hitting a career-best 175, which at that time was the second highest individual score while batting second in ODIs.

He first stitched a partnership with Smith, and then cut loose, hitting as many as 21 fours and seven over-boundaries.

Gibbs played international cricket for four more years before joining T20 leagues around the world. He last played for the Leo Lions in the Masters’ Champions League(MCL) in the UAE.
