5) ABD’s Tandava on the pitch
360 degree range of innovative shot-making really shouldn’t come as a surprise any longer. This was when he notched the fastest ever 150 in a World Cup match.
Such a shot would have even made the great Sir Viv come out and appplaud. This is exactly what a “cultured slogger”/ “surreal slogger” looks like. You can see the poise and intent of this incredibly flexible man and realise how the verb ‘to AB de Villiers’ someone’ has come to be about in cricketing slang.
With the swagger and intent of Bhuvan and the innovation of Guran, AB looks poised to be as much at home in the cast of Lagaan’s Indian team as in the South African national team.
