Basseterre, St. Kitts (June 11, 2007)
South African cricketer Herschelle Gibbs climaxed a seven day visit to the Caribbean island of St. Kitts and Nevis by tying the knot with his girlfriend of just over two years.
Herschelle and Tenielle were married on Friday (June 8) in a private ceremony at Rawlins Plantation Inn, a restored former sugar estate at Mount Pleasant in the tranquil rural community of St. Pauls in St. Kitts.
The week-long stay marked the second time the South African has visited the twin island Federation. His introduction to the island came three months earlier when his team was based here in the Group “A” Stage Matches for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2007. It was in this group stage when he established an international cricket record by hitting six, sixes in one over at Warner Park in the capital Basseterre. Gibbs was awarded honourary citizenship by the Honourable Prime Minister along with Australia’s Matthew Hayden for setting world records at Warner Park.
