Profile
A batsman of amazing chutzpah and endeavor, and in addition the aptitudes and the demeanor required to move down his inventive expectation. A defender ready to jump tall structures and still concoct the catch. A wicketkeeper who is flawlessly quiet wearing cushions and gloves. A fine rugby player, golfer, and tennis player. All AB de Villiers needs to flaunt his bottomless blessings is a ball. Pretty much any ball.
