highest total i.e. 263/5 and the lowest total i.e. 49.

South African batsman AB de Villiers has announced his retirement from international cricket earlier this year but he will play for the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the upcoming Indian Premier League. He is very excited to rejoin Virat Kohli and Royal Challengers Bangalore.
