Bad boys of cricket - 10 Sex scandals in cricket history

3. Herschelle Gibbs

This list without including Herschelle Gibbs would be fairly incomplete, as the cricketer had made some massive revelations through his autobiography – To the Point.  The book had extensively described the dirty side of the South African players, along with also recounting the several instances of Gibbs’s own sexual life.

However, one of the main revelations through this book was of the infamous instance during the 1999 World Cup against Australia where Gibbs wrote, “I just knew I was going to get a century. Perhaps the girl beside me had inspired me. She worked at the hotel, where I had befriended her. I guess she was my lucky charm — she certainly was when it came to my batting. I just wish her powers had extended to my fielding and the bladdy dropped catch.”

Another occurrence where Gibbs has famously revealed was, “Two beds, two cricketers and three w**en. One of them wasn’t all that keen, though; she just lay on the b*d. Which was fine – there was enough for everyone. The other two girls, however, more than made a go of it.” Also further, the cricketer had shared an instance of the 1997-98 Australian tour, wherein his teammates had noticed a str***er and had invited her to join them for an evening.
