Herschelle Gibbs - Bats, Balls & Bonking

Steamy *** in Australia between about 30 beautiful women and a “few very enthusiastic” South African cricket players in 1998 – this is but one of the Proteas’ ***capades remembered by Herschelle Gibbs in his autobiography, To the Point.

In more than 200 pages Gibbs also writes about being drunk before the 438th game, his stint in rehab, Hansie Cronje and match-fixing.

The bad boy of South African cricket with the wide smile and freckled face was regularly in the news for two decades due to his genial, instinctive batting ability and his wild personal life.

Gibbs (36) describes the events at the Hilton Hotel in Adelaide on the last night of the 1997/98 Proteas tour as “possibly the most remarkable night I’ve ever had”.

“It was one fat party. From mid-evening to the next afternoon. I enjoyed the company of … let’s say, more than one woman.

“The girls were really up for it ... You picked a girl up, (in the hotel’s bar) took her upstairs to your room and afterwards both of you would go back downstairs and you’d go and chat to someone else. It was a phenomenal night.”

The Australian tour – in terms of women and *** – is up until today the “most successful” one he has ever been on, writes Gibbs.

“It was like going shopping. From the first day women were almost falling into our laps virtually every night. Australian women, I can tell you, are not afraid to speak their minds and make it crystal-clear what they’re after.

Especially, as we found out, if you’re an international sportsman.

“They came hunting, often in packs, and if they liked what they saw, you were in for the ride of your life.”

Gibbs’ book is a no-holds barred autobiography but due to legal advice names and details were left out.

It has been confidentially reported that Gibbs’ old team mates – some of them married – were incredibly worried that they could be named in his descriptions of the *** capers.

City Press was privy to Gibbs’ original telling of an orgy between himself, two Australian women and three of his team mates.

It was eventually completely watered down in the book. In his uncut version Gibbs names a team mate who took part in a group *** encounter with two Australian women.

The player still plays for the Proteas. And he adds that players and girls almost always ended up in this player’s room.

In the original tale Gibbs graphically tells how the girls moved from player to player (in addition to Gibbs there was also a fast bowler, a spin bowler and the “team mate”) and gave them oral *** in turns.

For a “worked up” Gibbs this wasn’t enough and he went on to have *** with an “equally enthusiastic” girl.

In the watered down version Gibbs simply says: “Without going into too much detail let’s just say that the evening came to a very enjoyable conclusion.”

Gibbs writes that he always practised safe ***. But ironically he also writes of how he was furious when his first serious girlfriend, Liesl Fuller, got pregnant in 1996. He was 22 and already a cricket star. She was only 17 and he believed she wanted to “trap” him.

Could he have possibly bedded 100 women? “No,” Gibbs giggles after he’s taken a moment to think. “A good number yes. Definitely a multiple of 10 but not a hundred.”

There is no ***ual promiscuity, alcohol abuse or division in the current South African cricket team.

That was the reaction from the Proteas on Sunday following a nasty attack by former Proteas opening batsman Herschelle Gibbs on the team and in particular it’s captain, Graeme Smith.

Gibbs (36) shook the cricketing world on Sunday with allegations in his autobiography, To The Point, about ***ual orgies, alcohol and drug abuse during some of the team’s tours.

He also alleges that a “click” made up of Smith, Jacques Kallis, Mark Boucher and AB de Villiers causes division in the Proteas dressing room and makes it “impossible to develop positive team spirit”.

“The players are very disappointed about the allegations because Herschelle is an excellent player and should rather be remembered for what he did on the field,” said team manager Mohammad Moosajee.

“He was not a regular member of the team for the past two years and is therefore not in a position of comment on the team spirit.

“Anyone who has viewed the team’s performances against Pakistan would have been able to see that it is nonsense. You can’t achieve results like that without a good spirit on and off the field.”

The Proteas won the Twenty20 series against Pakistan last week and are level in the one-day series 1-1 after losing to their opponents on Sunday evening.

“His allegations (of regular group *** in the Proteas’ hotel) apparently refer to the tour of Australia in 1998. That happened 12 years ago and has nothing to do with the current team,” said Moosajee.

“We have our own code of conduct and each member of the team and management follows it.”

Gibbs also made allegations against former team-mate Daryll Cullinan that he had sold out his team-mates during their tour of the West Indies in 2001.

Gibbs, Roger Telemachus, André Nel, Justin Kemp and Paul Adams smoked dagga after a victory in Kingston.

“It was my idea and I felt that we should celebrate the win in the ‘appropriate manner’,” the book states.

Gibbs said that Cullinan had reported them to team management as he was angry with Telemachus.

Former Proteas captain Kepler Wessels said that the comments may mean the end of Gibbs’ international career of 90 Tests, 248 one-day matches and 23 Twenty20 games.

Gibbs writes in his autobiography that he would still like to play for the Proteas.

Cricket South Africa chief executive Gerald Majola said that a decision about possible steps against Gibbs would be taken on Monday.
