One of the greatest IPL stars for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the past few years, AB de Villiers has never put his hands on the orange cap.

Despite being a consistent batsman for RCB for past seven years, he was always outfoxed by the 'Universe Boss' Chris Gayle & skipper Virat Kohli, in terms of the number of runs in a season.

Mr. 360 got his personal best shot in IPL 2016, where he scored 687 runs, only to remain third on the list. The season was a complete run-fest where the South African was blanked out by David Warner (848 runs) and the orange cap winner Virat Kohli ( 973 runs).
