#5 Entertain fans in T20 leagues
One could argue that considering de Villiers decision to cut down on cricket, he could choose to not play the T20 leagues like IPL and Caribbean League, instead of retiring from Tests.
For a player like de Villiers, who is easily one of the best T20 batsmen, giving up T20s this early in his career will be a loss to him and to the sport as well. Despite being an overseas player, he receives an incredible amount of love and respect wherever he plays.
At 32, there is anyway not much scope of Test cricket left in him. He might as well hang up his boots in that form instead of not playing in the T20 leagues around the world and entertaining the millions of fans.
