Why AB Is The Best Batsman In The World?

- Kumar Abhishek

AB de Villiers has done things which are not possible for even the greatest in the game. The South African skipper, in the ODIs, has shown the ability to do the unconventional time and again during his international career. He has taught even the best fast bowlers a lesson and has written success script without taking too much pressure. The 33 year old batsman is one of the few players who averages over 50 in both Test and ODI cricket and is considered as one of the greatest fielders in the world. He has also kept wickets and has picked up wickets with the ball in his hand. Clearly, these achievements have not been seen before in the world of cricket and this makes him super natural or someone, who is above all in terms of talent.

CONQUEROR OF ON-FIELD DIMENSIONS

Most batsmen over the years in cricket have particular areas of supremacy with their batting. Some were or are strong on the off side while there are few, who prefers leg side. The field settings are done according to the strength and weaknesses of a batsman by a rival captain but when it is about AB de Villiers, he can hit bowlers to any part of the field. The right hand batsman can hit one knee six but his switch hit and reserve sweep are simply perfect. He is without doubt above all in terms of stroke play. While batting, he uses the crease like no one else in the history of the game.
