Like every other batsman in the world of cricket, the powerful South African AB De Villiers has also gone out a couple of times which are obnoxious. On one occasion AB hardly believed how the umpire gave him out and even the fans were left scratching their heads.
This incident happened in a test match in Bangladesh. South Africa was batting and when AB reached 46 runs he out got. He was facing the part timer Ashraful and the spinner bowled a two bounce ball to AB here. Now this was a dead ball as per the laws of the game.
AB saw the ball hitting first bounce then the second and after that it reached the batter. Now AB tried to heave the ball on the leg side. The ball hit the edge of the bat and went up and Ashraful caught the ball. Now AB was standing on the crease knowing that he would not be given out as it was a dead ball.
Ab de Villiers along with teammate Chris Morris made significant contributions to guide Titans to a seven-wicket bonus-point win over the Warriors on Tuesday in the top of the One-Day Cup.
Fast bowler Morris (3/32) and fellow Proteas star Lungi Ngidi (3/30) together took six wickets as the visitors were bundled out for 147 - the lowest score for any side this season - in 41.2 overs at Willowmoore Park.
Meanwhile, Proteas captain De Villiers clubbed an unbeaten 75 (62 balls, 10 fours, 1 six) to take his side to victory with over 20 overs to spare.
En route to his 75-run knock, the prolific hitter smashed a six on top of the stadium roof.
