South African batsman AB de Villiers has said that if the Twenty20 Cricket World Cup scheduled for October in Australia was postponed to next year then that could end his hopes of returning to the national side.
De Villiers, regarded as one of the best limited overs batsmen in the world, hopes to make a comeback for South Africa at the global event, having retired from all forms of international cricket in May 2018.
"If the tournament is postponed to next year, a whole lot of things will change," De Villiers, 36, told South Africa’s Rapport newspaper. "If I am 100% as good as I want to be, then I will be available. But if I am not, I won't open myself up to that because I am not the type of person who does things at 80%."
