The ferocious pulls, textbook drives, menacing cuts, and maverick scoops have all been getting one common address for the past 11 years of the IPL. Abraham Benjamin de Villiers is one of the most loved foreign players in India and also, arguably, the greatest entertainer in the history of this extravagant tournament. Thanks to the unbelievable prowess of this Superman from South Africa, most of the crowds get a bang for their buck.

And you would certainly be making a blunder if you'd credit the man just for his batting abilities. Nothing less than a prowling cheetah on the cricket field, de Villiers holds an account for some amazing fielding displays as well!

So an IPL edition without AB de Villiers would be hard to digest for any cricket fan, let alone the supporters of Royal Challengers Bangalore.
