AB DE VILLIERS MAY COMEBACK FROM RETIREMENT; OFFICIAL REPORT

Ahead of the T20 World Cup tournament next year in Australia, the retired South African batsman, Ab de Villers may come back from his retirement as per the recent statement made by the newly appointed head coach, Mark Boucher.

The WC 2019 loss has brought some exciting changes for South Africa cricket. Graeme Smith was appointed as the Director of Cricket for the board while Mark Boucher was appointed as the head coach for the team.

In his recent interview, Boucher hinted on calling back the retired players who have the potential to deliver for the nation.

"When you go to a World Cup, you want your best players playing for you. If I feel he (ABD) is one of your best players, why wouldn't I want to have a conversation with him? I've only just got into the job, I might have conversations with quite a few players and see where they are," Boucher was quoted as saying by the reports.

"From a coach's perspective, I'd love to have the opportunity to deepen and strengthen the squad. It will keep everyone on their toes and will bring more excellence into the game in this country," added Boucher.
