AB de Villiers was adjudged the Man of the Match in the game between Royal Challengers Bangalore & Delhi Capitals, which RCB won by 1 run. De Villiers scored 75* runs off 42 balls, hitting 3 fours and 5 sixes. AB de Villiers also became the 6th batsmen to cross 5,00 runs in IPL, and the fastest one to do so. After winning the man of the match award, Mr. 360 said, “The shot over extra cover was certainly one of the best shots, but the one over midwicket off KG was my best one. I don't often get him away, but I'm happy I managed to get him away for that one. It's important to be fresh for every game. ”
“I worked out at home and during the quarantine in the hotel room, and now it's just about managing ourselves throughout the tournament and being fresh when we go out there to play. We have some experienced heads and some young Indian bowlers who have done well internationally recently. They come in with a lot of confidence.”
“Myself, Virat and Maxi chip in with some help when we can too. I forced myself to say a bit more behind the stumps, thanks to Chahal who urged me to do it.”
