New Delhi:

Royal Challengers main stay AB De Villiers has been injured ahead of IPL 10, as per latest reports. AB pulled out of the final of the Momentum One Day Cup—domestic 50-overs meet due to back pain. 

The extent of De Villiers’ injury has not been confirmed by either the player or the cricket board. It may well be the case that De Villiers is preserving himself for the million dollar league and didn’t risk himself by appearing for the Titans in the final against Warriors played at the Super Sport Park in Centurion.
