The one who hit 6 sixes in 6 balls, now the same legendary cricketer was caught in the hotel room.

Cricketer: Cricketer who surprised the world with his batting, who made history by hitting 6 sixes in 6 balls of one over-the same cricketer is now in the headlines once again, but this time not for a bang for a bang, but for a shameful action.

The player who once created a storm on the field was banned for six months. Both records and controversies are together with this player.

Actually, the cricketer who is being talked about here is not no and but former South African star batsman Herschelle Gibbs, whose name is recorded in golden letters in cricket history. He became the first player to hit six sixes in six consecutive balls in international cricket.

But the more discussion his batting, the more he was due to his controversial antics in the headlines. Sometimes drugs were caught in scandal, sometimes the revelations of scoring a century in the hangover made him the center of news.

Gibbs caught drinking hemp in hotel room

The incident took place on 11 May 2001, when the South African team was on a West Indies tour. Four other players, including Gibbs – Paul Adams, Roger Telemecus, Andre Nail and Justin Camp, were caught drinking marijuana (ganja) in a hotel in Antigua.

The team’s physiotherapist Craig Smith was also present with him at that time. The board imposed a fine of 10,000 rands on Gibbs and a six -month ban. The incident was a major setback for South African cricket, which also had a negative impact on the image of the team.

Even drunk 175 Run, Was disclosed himself

In 2005, Gibbs played a fierce innings of 175 runs in the historic match played against Australia. In this match, South Africa achieved a target of 435 by scoring 438 runs. In this match, Gibbs batted in a state of intoxication.

Later, Gibbs revealed in his autobiography ‘to the point: the no holds barred’ that he had drunk heavily a night before the match, and batting in a hangover’s condition the next morning.

Gibbs’ career may have been full of injuries, restrictions and controversies, but his aggressive batting and adventures on the field always kept him special. He is one of the selected cricket players who are both like a film script.
