Twitter in meltdown as AB de Villiers goes bonkers in RCB's win over DD; video
Bengaluru: AB de Villiers produced a masterclass in T20 batting as Royal Challengers Bangalore beat Delhi Daredevils to register their second win in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2018 here on Saturday.
The South African maverick scored 90* off 39 balls as RCB sailed past DD’s 174 on their home ground M Chinnaswamy stadium.
ABD hit ten fours and five sixes while skipper Virat Kohli scored 30 off 26 balls as RCB reached the target with two overs to spare.
Such was the audacity of ABD’s innings that Twitter went berserk, Ben Stokes even suggested the only method to stop ABD - to bowl underarm - as he powered his IPL team to a stunning win against Gautam Gambhir and co.
