Watch: Is AB de Villiers Returning To RCB? Virat Kohli "Spills The Beans"

Former South Africa cricketer AB de Villiers was one of the biggest names in the Indian Premier League, but the long-time Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) announced his retirement from all forms of cricket ahead of the ongoing season. One of the most versatile batters, aptly nicknamed Mr 360, de Villiers was one of the most crucial player for RCB over the years, often rescuing them from difficult situations. Although RCB are in contention for a play-off spot this season, his absence has been felt by the team, especially in a few defeats where the batting let them down.

Former RCB skipper Virat Kohli, who has been with the franchise since the inaugural edition of the IPL, also shared a close bond with the South African maestro and their partnerships in the middle have become iconic for the team.
