A B de Villiers

AB de Villiers is a cricket batsman, and was born in 1984 in Warmbad, South Africa. The statistics tell barely half the story but, so far, AB de Villiers has scored more than 8,000 runs in Test cricket, more than 8,000 runs in one-day internationals and more than 24,000 runs in his professional career. Admired as a true entertainer wherever the game is played, he is distinguished not only by his brilliant strokeplay in all formats of the game, but also by his humble and determined captaincy of the South African national team in Tests and one-day internationals. His autobiography AB de Villiers was published in 2017.
