Herschelle Gibbs IPL career in four seasons from 2008 to 2012 was a crash-course in fearless top-order batting. The South African dasher amassed 886 runs off just 807 deliveries, translating to an eye-catching strike rate of 109. His 36 innings were laced with 83 fours and 31 sixes—power zones that made Gibbs a nightmare for bowlers across three franchises. Gibbs’ highest IPL score of 69 tells only half the story; six half-centuries underline his knack for converting starts into match-shaping contributions. Operating mainly for Sunrisers Hyderabad between 2008 and 2010 before a final cameo with Mumbai Indians in 2012, he brought a blend of classic timing and T20 aggression. With zero wickets across zero bowling innings, Gibbs’ value lay purely in his bat—and the numbers testify to that singular focus.
