Batsmen scoring centuries in IPL with the help of ten or more boundary fours and ten or more boundary sixes – AB de Villiers is the third batsman to accomplish such a feat

AB de Villiers scored 129 not out in this game. His century comprised of 10 boundary four and 12 boundary sixes. He became the third batsman in the history of IPL to score a century with the help of ten or more boundary four and ten or more boundary sixes. Others to accomplish such a feat are BB McCullum and CH Gayle. Interesting enough, all the three batsmen have chosen Bangalore as the ground to accomplish the feat and all the three batsmen are overseas batsmen.
