Middle-order: AB de Villiers, Shimron Hetmyer
AB de Villiers is one of the most successful overseas batsmen in the Indian Premier League. The Proteas star has scored 3953 runs in IPL at an average of almost 40 and a strike rate of 151. With 28 fifties and three hundred, de Villiers has played some scintillating knocks in the tournament. AB de Villiers is retired from international cricket and expected to play the entire season for Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Shimron Hetmyer is an IPL newbie. He was phenomenal for Guyana Amazon Warriors in the 2018 Carribean Premier League. With 440 runs at a strike rate of almost 150, he was one of the stars of the tournament. With a T20 strike rate of 142.42, Hetmyer is expected to light up the Chinnaswamy Stadium come March. The prospect of Kohli, de Villiers, and Hetmyer batting together is mouthwatering.
