AB de Villiers' hard-hit ball found by Sharjah kid, Bangalore has special message for him

The Bangalore team relies on their swashbuckling wicketkeeper-batsman AB de Villiers to up the ante for the side during the middle overs. The South African has seldom disappointed his franchise, as he has been a prolific run-scorer for the Virat Kohli-led side. It has been over two years since AB de Villiers retired from international cricket, but his explosive batting prowess can still not be discounted. The 36-year-old, in the team's battle against Kolkata on Monday, yet again demonstrated why he is considered to be one of the most dangerous batsmen in world cricket. 

Bangalore's special message for young fan who claimed the ball that AB de Villiers hit for six 

AB de Villiers enthralled the fans at the expense of Kolkata pacer Kamlesh Nagarkoti as he took the youngster to cleaners. The highlight of the star batsman's stay at the crease was the mighty back-to-back sixes that he struck in Nagarkoti's over, where the ball landed outside the Sharjah Stadium on the city's busy roads. Much to the delight of a young fan, he found the ball that had sailed outside the stadium. The Bangalore franchise also shared the picture of the kid on their Twitter account. The memories of AB de Villiers decimating bowlers in the Dream11 IPL 2020 match will surely be etched in the young fan's mind.
