Ace South African cricketer AB de Villiers took an early retirement from the International cricket, leaving eveyone in utter shock.
AB de Villiers the greatest cricketer offered to return to International cricket representing South Africa at the mega cricketing event ICC World Cup 2019 in England. The magnificent offer of Villiers was rejected by the team management of South Africa.
As per the reports of Espncricinfo, it is assumed that AB de Villiers conveyed his eagerness to return to the team to South African skipper Faf Du Plessis. Villiers also tried to convince the head coach and the selectors of the South African cricketing board. Just 24 hours prior to the announcement of South Africa’s 15 men squad for World Cup 2019.
The offer was rejected by the South African management team cause of AB De Villiers absence from the domestic cricket and he didn’t fulfil the selector’s criteria as AB De Villiers retired from the international cricket on May 2018. The cricketer had a marvellous session in Indian Premier League for Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Ab De Villers finally responded to the ongoing buzz. He took to his twitter handle and tweeted, All that’s important is that we should all focus on supporting the team at the World Cup. There is a long way to go and I believe the boys can still go all the way.

However, South Africa is terribly struggling in ICC World Cup 2019 as they consistently lost 3 matches against England, India, Bangladesh. This is recorded as the worst start of South Africa in the eight campaign World Cup.
