Ever since the post went up, the wicket-keeper batsman has received over 1.2 lakh likes to his post and a steady stream of congratulatory messages.

The Pretorian was recently part of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 where he represented the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). He made his mark with the bat and finished the season as the third highest run-scorer for RCB. He scored 454 runs in 15 matches at a strike rate of 158.74. His batting exploits immensely helped his team to make it to the playoffs for the first time since 2016.

Post IPL stint, the batting legend pulled out of the upcoming Big Bash League (BBL) 2020 to spend some quality time with his family.

De Villiers retired from all forms of international cricket in 2018. However, he has tried to make a comeback and in 2020, he announced that he wants to represent his country in the T20 World Cup which has been postponed due to the pandemic.
