AB – superhuman or spiderman?
As with any feat of brilliance or simply anything that AB de Villiers does, social media and the cricketing world on Friday (May 18) were amazed by the South African’s inhuman fielding effort that helped Royal Challengers Bangalore secure a thrilling win over Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Just AB being AB, we guess.
Virat Kohli✔@imVkohli
Kumar Sangakkara✔@KumarSanga2
Incredible. But then it’s @ABdeVilliers17

Sorry about that, have just been sick all over the keyboard. That was a nauseatingly-superb grab from AB. Bravo, sir. #IPL2018 #RCBvSRH #RCB

Just seen the replay of that catch; What the Duck was that @vikramsathaye @ABdeVilliers17
Mitchell McClenaghan✔@Mitch_Savage
Can’t keep ABD out of the game… wow!
Chris Lynn✔@lynny50
AB is really good
Other notable mentions in the classic encounter at the Chinnaswamy were Moeen Ali, Rashid Khan and of course, Kane Williamson.
Manish Pandey✔@im_manishpandey
Another classic game last night, unfortunate to have fallen short !!! Batting of the highest Quality from both teams & to top it off Blinders by SuperMan @ABdeVilliers17 & our very own Magician @rashidkhan_19
IndianPremierLeague✔@IPL
Sample that for a stunner from @rashidkhan_19 #VIVOIPL #RCBvSRH
Rohit Sharma✔@ImRo45
T20 cricket isn’t just about power, it’s also about being smart and playing to your strengths and Williamson is doing exactly that
Harsha Bhogle✔@bhogleharsha
Always been a fan of Kane Williamson, the test batsman and captain. But to see him raise his game in T20 through this #IPL has been an experience to watch
Michael Vaughan✔@MichaelVaughan
Still don’t think the #IPL teams realise how good many of England’s players are at the White ball game these days … RR took along time to Open with @josbuttler … RCB took forever to get Mo Ali in the team … Many more could have a huge impact … #JustSaying
The best catch ever? There might be some dispute over that.
Brydon Coverdale✔@brydoncoverdale
The de Villiers catch is great, but it was let down by the lack of Bill Lawry going ballistic on commentary like this one from Adam Dale.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lO2Y1vkpyNc …
And we thank the stars, the universe and everything for this every day!
Theena K@KTheenaSaid it before, will say it again: thank god AB chose cricket over the countless other sports he could have excelled at. I have never seen a more gifted, purer athlete in the men’s cricket circuit. Hand-eye coordination, balance, strength, agility, brains. Complete. #RCBvSRH
Putting Bangalore’s qualification hopes in another light.
Gaurav Kalra✔@gauravkalra75
So at 4pm tomorrow both B S Yeddyurappa & Virat Kohli have to face knockout situations
Kumar Sangakkara ended up running into Sathish Sivalingam, the Indian CWG weightlifting gold medalist.
