#2 AB de Villiers, 31 runs from 8 balls Vs Pune Warriors, 2013

AB de Villiers destroyed the Pune Warriors bowlers with some brutal hitting

It is no surprise to see AB de Villiers twice on this list. This T20 match will go down in history as the world saw Chris Gayle 'universal boss' smacking the hapless Pune warriors for an unbeaten 175 runs of 66 balls.

While Chris Gayle’s record-breaking innings grabbed all the headlines, AB de Villiers matched him shot for shot in his brief stay at the crease. Coming to bat with few balls to go, AB de Villiers struck a blistering 31 runs off 8 balls.

He started his innings with a boundary through midwicket and then struck his second ball for a six over long-on. His next 6 balls read 4,1,4,6,6,W. He took Royal Challengers Bangalore to 263/5 in 20 overs, so far the highest score in an innings in Indian Premier League.
