de Villiers' wicket triggered a collapse for the RCB on Saturday with the team going from 71/3 at the start of the 12th over to being limited to 120/7.
"Basically when I dismissed him, he had already hit me for a six in the same over. So I thought of bowling him at the off stump and luckily the ball went flying straight to deep extra cover," he said.
