Former South African superstar AB de Villiers has once again sparked excitement among fans with his remarks about a possible return to the Indian Premier League (IPL). The legendary batter, who retired from all forms of cricket in 2021, revealed that he is open to making a comeback in some capacity, though playing a full season would be difficult. “I may return to the IPL in the future, but playing the full season is difficult. If an opportunity comes, I will definitely be with RCB,” said de Villiers, highlighting his long-standing bond with Royal Challengers Bangalore. De Villiers remains one of the most adored cricketers in the IPL’s history, having scored over 5,000 runs for RCB with his trademark flair and unmatched stroke play. His partnership with Virat Kohli produced some of the league’s most memorable moments. Although stepping back from competitive cricket, his influence on the game continues to inspire both young players and fans alike. RCB supporters, in particular, hold a special place for him in their hearts. With this latest hint, speculation has grown that he could return in a mentoring, coaching, or ambassadorial role. Whatever the case, AB de Villiers’ connection with RCB is clearly far from over.
