AB de Villiers announced his retirement from all forms of International cricket with immediate effect. He informed the world about this via a video message posted on his official app.

At one point in the video when AB said, “I have no plans to play overseas,” it was shock for many of us.

However, the Royal Challengers Bangalore franchise has confirmed that ABD will continue playing for the side. In a conversation with an RCB fan, when asked whether AB would play in the IPL in future or not, the franchise wrote:

“Yes he will.”

Just days back, AB had ended his IPL campaign as the second highest run-getter for RCB. Although RCB was not able to make it to the Playoffs, de Villiers played with consistency as an individual.

He had also posted a video, for the RCB fans:

De Villiers also posted on his official app: “It has been a very tough decision to make and I’ve thought long and hard about it but I believe it is my time to step down. A huge thank you to my teammates, Cricket South Africa and all the supporters who have been behind me both in SA and around the world.”
