AB de Villiers played a magical knock as South Africa Champions defeated Australia Champions by a big margin of 95 runs in the World Championship of Legends 2025 at Headingley. His brilliant hundred, along with top bowling from Aaron Phangiso and Imran Tahir, made it an unforgettable match for South Africa.
After winning the toss, South Africa chose to bat first. De Villiers and JJ Smuts gave the team a flying start with a huge 187-run partnership for the first wicket. De Villiers was unstoppable, scoring 123 runs off just 46 balls with 15 fours and 8 sixes. He reached his fifty in only 20 balls and hit 22 runs in one over from D’Arcy Short to get to his second straight WCL century. Smuts also batted well, scoring 85 runs from 53 balls. The pair helped South Africa reach 241/6 in 20 overs.
Australia had a mountain to climb, and things went wrong from the very first ball. Imran Tahir removed Chris Lynn, and the wickets kept falling. Phangiso picked up 4 wickets for 22 runs, while Tahir took 3 for 20. Australia were 67/8 by the 10th over.
Ben Cutting tried to fight back with an unbeaten 59, and he added 79 runs with Peter Siddle, but the damage had already been done. Australia were all out for 146 in 16.4 overs, handing South Africa a massive win and making a big statement in the tournament.
