STEVE BANKS: Made a breathtaking one-handed save from Lee McCulloch to keep Gills in front in the second half. 7

NYRON NOSWORTHY: A commanding and solid display at the back and a threat during his brief outings up front. 8

BARRY ASHBY: Solid at the back and made several forays into the Wigan half where his deliveries caused problems in the visitors' defence. 7

IAN COX: Faced with the most potent attack in the Championship, Cox stood up superbly and won virtually every header. 8

JOHN HILLS: Almost made a costly mistake in the first half and had a busy match against tricky winger Gary Teale. 6

NICKY SOUTHALL: A lively display although he still needs to improve on his set-piece delivery. 7

PAUL SMITH: The captain was for once overshadowed in midfield as the likes of Southall and Mike Flynn got stuck in. 6

MIKE FLYNN: Looked like he was enjoying the challenge against his former team-mates and was the first to get stuck into the battle. 7

ANDREW CROFTS: Was an important player in the second half as he looked to get Sidibe and Henderson involved. 7

MATT JARVIS: Disappointing display which failed to live up to his previous impressive showings. Substituted at half-time. 5

DARIUS HENDERSON: The two-goal hero had an awesome game, showing that he can use his head in more ways than one. 9

Substitutions: Mamady Sidibe for Jarvis (46 mins), Chris Hope for Cox (73 mins).
