Out-of-favour veteran South Africa opener Herschelle Gibbs has no regrets about the "bunch of animals" remark directed towards the Pakistani fans during a Test at Centurion in 2007 but said by no means he was a racist.

In his recently published controversial autobiography, 'To The Point', Gibbs wrote that the entire South African team was "irritated" by the unruly behaviour of the Pakistani supporters during that match.
