Writing for Firstpost, Tariq Engineer explores the inevitability of AB de Villiers' 133 off 59 balls, and explains why he felt a little cold after watching the batsman's knock.
De Villiers wasn't being immodest or arrogant when he said Sunday's innings wasn't his best. He understands the playing field was tilted his way. The fielding side can't put fielders where they want. The bowlers can't bowl the deliveries they want. But the batsman can do whatever he wants. He can stand outside leg, he move outside off. He can play right-handed and left-handed.
