Then AB de Villiers made things look ridiculously silly once again. #IPL2021— Vinayakk (@vinayakkm) April 18, 2021The dream is to one day watch De Villiers and Maxwell bat three overs at the death against Jason Holder at Wankhede.— Dweplea (@dweplea) April 18, 2021Leading IPL run-scorers with switch hit/reverse sweep:Warner - 157 runsDe Villiers - 141 runsUthappa - 131 runsMaxwell - 116 runs#IPL2021 #KKRvRCB— The CricViz Analyst (@cricvizanalyst) April 18, 2021RCB Fans looking at Maxwell and AB De Villiers today : #IPL2021#RCBvKKR pic.twitter.com/ZdUXdQeJw7— Rohit (@dBigDangTheory) April 18, 2021Can't think of any batting pair in any IPL team as full of explosive possibilities as Glenn Maxwell and AB de Villiers.Kieron Pollard and Hardik Pandya closest, but given everyone at peak hitting form, AB-Maxwell shade them too I'd think... #RCBvKKR— Saurabh Somani (@saurabh_42) April 18, 2021AB de villiers and maxwell to KKR bowlers today :-#ABdeVilliers #RCBvKKR pic.twitter.com/k3TGXLa06E— axay patel🔥🔥 (@akki_dhoni) April 18, 2021The Ab De Villiers and Glenn Maxwell's Madness in Chennai.— CricketMAN2 (@man4_cricket) April 18, 2021Abraham Benjamin De Villiers should be renamed to Alien Benjamin De Villiers.. #DeVilliers #SUPERHUMAN #Maxwell #KKRvsRCB #RCB— Prashant (@PeeCee07) April 18, 2021Such a big total on a ground like Chennai where teams struggle to reach the total of 150.It is going to be very difficult for KKR to chase.Incredible innings from Glenn Maxwell and AB de Villiers.One started in style the other one finished in in style.#RCBvKKR pic.twitter.com/WoruUGjeXE— Saurabh Singh (@IamsaurabhUP) April 18, 2021RCB had got off to a horrible start as they lost two wickets in just their second over, including that of their skipper Virat Kohli. But Glenn Maxwell's counter-attacking brand of cricket took KKR by surprise.The Australian all-rounder unleashed one unorthodox shot after another from his repertoire to bring the RCB innings back on track. Runs started flowing from both ends once AB de Villiers joined Maxwell at the crease.RCB looked good to reach a score in excess of 170 even when Glenn Maxwell lost his wicket for 78. But what AB de Villiers unleashed in the last five overs was something even RCB wouldn't have expected.An absolute onslaught by the Proteas star towards the end powered RCB over the 200-run mark. On a slow Chennai pitch, no one had expected such ridiculously good batting from the 37-year-old. But that has been the specialty of AB De Villiers, as he just finds new ways of amazing everyone with his ability.KKR have got off to somewhat of a flying start, but this pitch has played tricks in the second innings every single time. Thus, it will be interesting to see whether Eoin Morgan and his men can stop RCB from making it three wins in a row.
