AB de Villiers
Poetry in motion: AB de Villiers has no trouble putting it away

The entire complexion of this year’s CPL changed when the Barbados Tridents announced the signing of AB De Villiers, arguably, the best batsman in the world across the 3 formats. ‘Mr. 360’ is at his most dangerous in the T20 format, with his innovative stroke making and ability to accelerate at any point. He has gone about his job with distinction like he generally does, amassing 234 runs in his 6 matches at an average of 58.5, striking at 150. The Barbados Tridents are placed 3rd and poised to make a charge towards the top of the table towards the end of the season. He has saved his best for the SKN Patriots, where he has scored 2 half-centuries to help the Tridents do the double over them.
