In #AajKaTaazaBakar, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) are eagerly waiting for South African superstar AB de Villiers to mesmerise fans in the upcoming VIVO Indian Premier League 13. De Villiers, commonly known as Mr. 360 degrees, was roped in by the RCB think tank in 2011. He has been one of the beacons of the IPL and cricket worldwide.
Here’s what Royal Challengers Bangalore tweeted: "Even this shot made it to the boundary! Wristy work AB!."
A maverick batsman, De Villiers, has been off the radar following his international retirement in 2018, but he recently expressed his comeback into the national side for this year’s ICC T20 World Cup in Australia.
