Abraham Benjamin de Villiers is a South African cricketer, commonly known as AB de Villiers, Mr. 360°, or simply AB. He is considered one of the greatest batsmen of all time. He initially played for the Delhi Daredevils team but later joined the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the fourth season of the IPL. He has scored four T20 centuries, three of which were achieved in the IPL. As of June 2019, he has participated in over 150 matches in the league. He has played match-winning innings for RCB and has displayed some destructive batting against bowlers, especially in the death overs.
AB is a renowned batsman of the modern era who is widely appreciated for his innovative and unique playing style. He has a reputation for hitting unorthodox shots, especially behind the wicketkeeper. He is often referred to as “Mr. 360” because of his ability to play shots in all directions and “Superman” due to his exceptional fielding skills. In T20 cricket, AB is considered an aggressive batsman who is not afraid to use unconventional shots. He can make the most difficult shots look ridiculously easy and butcher the ball all around, all with a smile. We have witnessed his magic with the bat and fielding skills in the IPL, and we are in complete awe of this man.
AB de Villiers is a genuine modern-day legend of the game and among its all-time greats.
