As former South African captain AB de Villiers celebrates his 36th birthday today (February 17), let us look back at his playing days and find out why he is called “Mr. 360”. He is capable of hitting shots all around the ground. Recently, he was seen playing in the Big Bash League (BBL) Twenty20 tournament in Australia. He turned up for Brisbane Heat. There are speculations that De Villiers may come out of retirement to play the ICC T20 World Cup in Australia. Even South Africa coach Mark Boucher has hinted that he is ready to welcome back the Proteas superstar.
