'The 438 was my finest hour'
In a free-wheeling interview with Aditya Iyer of the Indian Express, Herschelle Gibbs reveals the reason why he decided to pen his controversial autobiography, his darkest moment, his finest hour and his take on "dropping the World Cup".
“It never happened. It’s actually a rumour. I don’t remember him saying, ‘Hersch, you just dropped the World Cup mate.’ I asked Gilly about it many years later, during my stint with the Deccan Chargers, and he told me that Waugh was just the kind of guy to go ahead with the rumour. If Australia wouldn’t have won the World Cup, you would have never heard of it, because it isn’t true."
