7. AB de Villiers – 13.1 M followers

AB de Villiers will go down as one of the most destructive batsmen in the history of the game. He still holds the record of the fastest 100 in the ODI format. And he is the batsman who can tear apart any bowling attack even after retiring from the sport. The South African cricket fraternity was blessed to witness a genius like ABD. 

De Villiers has played 114 Test matches with an average of 50.66. He was the batsman who could occupy the crease for long periods and tee off whenever the team required him to do so. Adding on, he was at his best during the 2015 World Cup. There, he scored the fastest 150 in ODIs against the West Indies. 

De Villiers has fans all over the world. Talking about his IPL performances, he has scored 4849 runs with a strike rate of 151.91. And it is of no doubt that the Indian fans cheer him wherever he goes. For a batsman like ABD, he still has a lot of cricket to offer. And a fan base of 13.1 M followers justifies that.
