Gibbs’ valiant Champions Trophy ton

Relive the spectacular innings by Herschelle Gibbs in the 2002 Champions Trophy semi-final clash in Colombo between India and South Africa.

Chasing 262 for victory and a spot in the final up for grabs against either Australia or Sri Lanka, Gibbs produced a brilliant and patient batting display to bring up his century.

Unfortunately, the opener had to retire hurt on 116 and with not a great deal of assistance from the other Proteas batsmen, South Africa fell 10 runs short of their target.

India and Sri Lanka would go on to contest the final but after two days of heavy rain, the teams were declared co-champions.
