The Proteas have had some of the modern-day greats in their ranks and AB de Villiers deservingly falls in that very bracket. Mr 360 is credited for revolutionalising the shorter format of the game but cricket enthusiasts will agree to the fact that de Villiers was equally impressive on the Test front as well.

De Villiers enjoys a massive fan following in India courtesy of his enthralling performances in the Indian Premier League. The former South African skipper has always enjoyed playing in India - be it in the IPL or against India in the international matches.

Havng scored 1334 runs in 20 Test matches against India, de Villiers is one of the most prolific South African run-scorers against India in the longer format of the game. His score of 217* against the subcontinent giants at Ahmedabad is still fondly remembered by the South African cricket devotees. The Indians fans too were left in awe by de Villier's batting prowess.
