Blessed with second child

Earlier in the month of July in 2015, AB de Villiers had become a proud parent when he was blessed with his first son. He named his first son after the same initials that he has. Back then, he had shared similar emotions when he had disclosed the news to the media and his fans.

Talking about the on-field commitments, AB is not with the national side at the moment. Team South Africa is in England for the 4-match Test series. The series stands leveled at 1-1 at the moment. AB is not a part of the Test squad that is there on the tour. His next assignment will most likely be against Bangladesh.
