The fan asked AB de Villiers, “Hey AB sir did you speak to Virat? Is he fine? Will he be back for the next 3 Tests? India needs him and the fans are waiting for his return, how did you manage a strike rate of 147 and 47 average against Bumrah in T20s?”

Replying to the question AB de Villiers said, “Yes, so his second child is on the way, it’s family time, its a priority of his family and things are important to you. If you are not genuine to yourself, you lose track of what you are here for and why you are on earth. I think most people’s purpose is family, you cannot judge Virat for that. You miss him but he has made the right decision.”
