Must read | Would SA have had a better World Cup with AB de Villiers?

London — How different might SA’s World Cup campaign have panned out had AB de Villiers been involved?“It’s impossible to tell‚” De Villiers said in London on Tuesday. “I’m still playing decent cricket‚ but things worked out the way they did and it’s in the past now and there’s no need to delve into it.

Worse‚ after SA lost their first three games — against England‚ Bangladesh and India — it emerged that De Villiers might have made a comeback. “Regretful is a difficult way of explaining the whole thing‚” De Villiers said. “Obviously it didn’t work out the way it should have. “The call back was: ‘We’re fine.’ I said‚ ‘All the best. I’ll be right behind you guys.’ That’s literally how the conversation went.”

So is New Zealand’s Ross Taylor‚ who was on the other end of Sunday’s equation. But it seems Taylor has returned home.
