Dale Steyn's banter with AB de Villiers in MSL 2019

Recently, the pacer was in news for his friendly banter with AB de Villiers. It took place in the match between Tshwane Spartans and Cape Town Blitz. In the 14th over of the Spartans’ run-chase, Steyn bowled a full-toss to de Villiers, which he tried to hit out of the park but couldn’t time the ball and ended up hitting it straight back to the bowler. De Villiers immediately put his hand up in apology after which Steyn decided to have some fun with him.

The Proteas fast bowler hit the stumps with the ball while De Villiers had come out of the crease to give him the ball. Thereafter, Steyn raised his finger jokingly and De Villiers put the stumps back in place. The packed audience present at the venue in Cape Town had a good laugh about the funny and light-hearted incident. Even the commentator narrated about the camaraderie shared by two extremely popular figures of South African cricket.
