Herschelle Gibbs, born on 23 February 1974, is a South African cricket coach and former cricketer who played all formats of the game for fourteen years. A right-handed batsman who mostly opened the batting, he became the first player to hit six consecutive sixes in one over in One Day International cricket, doing so against the Netherlands in the 2007 Cricket World Cup. He is regarded as one of the most naturally talented cricketers South Africa has produced and was also known as an excellent fielder. A 2005 report by ESPNcricinfo showed that since the 1999 Cricket World Cup he had effected the eighth highest number of run-outs in ODI cricket of any fieldsman, with the tenth highest success rate.
