AB de Villiers

He started the season with a Test and ODI series victory over Pakistan. He was the player of the series scoring 352 and 367 in Tests and ODIs respectively. Then South Africa lost the ODI series in Sri Lanka where de Villiers did not perform to his capability.

South Africa is known by the name of “chokers” and again they justified this name by losing the Champions Trophy semi-final to England. The ongoing series against India at home has been a decent one for de Villiers. He led his team to the ODI series victory by 2-0 against the World No. 1 team. The first Test match in Johannesburg ended in a draw—South Africa required 458 runs to win in two days. AB de Villiers along with Faf du Plesis took their country near to the target when Villiers got out on 103.

There were very few occasions when AB de Villiers did not contribute in South Africa’s victories.
