AB De Villiers: Top 5 ODI scores

#2 162* vs West Indies, SCG, 2015

De Villiers lights up West Indies bowlers with 162

In the 2015 Cricket World Cup, South Africa had lost their second group stage game to India by 130 runs and were looking to make a strong comeback. They were up against West Indies for a Group B showdown.

South Africa won the toss and chose to bat first. Jason Holder struck early in the innings sending back the opener De Kock for just 12 off 19 balls. With Amla and Du Plessis both hitting key half-centuries, the innings was on track but losing two wickets in quick succession meant, South Africa was again in trouble at 146-3.

De Villiers who then walked in at No. 5, destroyed the West Indies bowling attack and scored a monster 162 off 66 balls with 17 fours and 8 sixes. South Africa finished with 408-5 in 50 overs because of De Villiers' ruthless exhibition of exceptional hitting.

West Indies in their reply, got bundled out for just 151 runs. It was Imran Tahir who ripped through the Windies batsmen registering 5/45 in his 10 overs. Kyle Abbott and Morne Morkel both picked up 2 wickets each and Steyn picked up a wicket. It was AB who once again took home the Man of the Match trophy.
