AB de Villiers is all set to return to cricket after four years and will play alongside Yuvraj Singh, Brett Lee, Kieron Pollard, Harbhajan Singh, and Eoin Morgan in the World Championship of Legends, which will run from July 18 to August 2.

AB de Villiers, Albie Morkel, Wayne Parnell, Hardus Viljoen, and Aaron Phangiso are part of the South African Legends Side.

“There is nothing like playing for the country. It will be special to play with the legends of the game and in front of the fans, who have always supported us. We are not in the WCL to participate but to compete and win,” he said.

Fans will welcome him with open arms when he returns to the field after a long time.

Meanwhile, he was present when Royal Challengers Bengaluru won their maiden IPL title this year. The right-handed batter was invited on the stage by Virat Kohli to hold the trophy, and the former RCB captain also lauded his former teammate for his contributions.

AB was an integral part of RCB for years and was one of their best performers. However, despite giving match-winning performances, he didn’t win a title with Bengaluru during his association with the franchise.
