#1 – Andrew Tye vs AB de Villiers

Andrew Tye has picked up seven wickets from just two matches

With his remarkable 5/17 against RPS on IPL debut, Andrew Tye managed to register the eighth best figures in the tournament’s history. He now returns to the venue of his crime in order to have a go against RCB’s power-packed batting lineup.

Although chances of replicating a similar performance does not appear to be too high, the 30-year old from Australia could settle for the prized scalp of AB de Villiers.

Since the stunning 46-ball 89 against Kings XI Punjab in Indore, the dynamic South African batsman has been kept relatively quiet. Tye’s combination of slower deliveries and yorkers makes for a fascinating tussle against the versatile nature of de Villiers.
