AB de Villiers, WCL 2025: AB de Villiers is only 41 age. If they get down on the cricket field even today, then the same view is seen, which was seen in the second season of the World Championship of Legends on 22 July. All the thrill of that match played between India and South Africa Champions continued around AB de Villiers. He first hit the bat, then showing agility in fielding, such a surprise of the player who scored a century from 37 balls, that the Indian team was forced to kneel.
De Villiers hit 61* run at a strike rate of over 200
41 -year -old AB de Villiers performed such a bang that every bowler of India showed the thread opening before him. He was not out of any bowler. Until the end, he scored 61 runs in just 30 balls at a strike rate of 203.33. Thanks to this fast-paced score, South Africa Champions managed to score 206 runs for 6 wickets in 20 overs.
India’s batting in front of the target of 200 runs
Now India Champions should have got a target of 207 runs, but due to rain obstruction, his target from Duckworth Lewis was changed to 200 runs in 18.2 overs. The condition of India Champions broke out in front of this target. It seemed like climbing a mountain for them. The control that the team lost from the beginning of the South African bowlers remained intact till the end. Neither Uthappa Chale, nor Dhawan, nor Raina nor Rayudu and Yuvraj Singh were not playing in this match.
De Villiers quickly hit a century from 37 balls
Yusuf Pathan, who scored a century in 37 balls in the IPL, applied the brake with his quickly. Yusuf Pathan put a big shot on a ball of Imran Tahir, but before he was converted into 4 or 6 runs, 41 -year -old de Villiers not only stopped him with his quickness but also turned it into amazing catch. De Villiers fielded the ball at the boundary and threw it towards the fellow player standing nearby, who caught him.
