For those who dont know, this match was played in Johannesburg in 2016. The Australian attack included Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood too. AB reached his hundred in just 39 deliveries which was the second fastest ODI century at that time.
Wow such brave hitting against a 40-year old retired bowler who wasnt even playing cricket anymore. Truly heroic stuff lol
Best part was when AB hit six sixes in one over off Lee’s bowling while Lee was sitting at home watching on TV. Truly magical stuff
Title is completely wrong but ok
Amazing how Brett Lee managed to bowl in 2016 despite retiring 4 years earlier. Must of been using some serious time travel technology
People forget that Brett Lee retired in 2012 so this title makes no sence at all. How could AB face Lee in 2016??? Get your facts straight before posting nonsense.
Absolutely insane innings! AB was in beast mode that day. Never seen anyone smash Lee like that before, the man was literally playing on a different level than everyone else.
The real innings was against Starc not Lee. AB was incredible that day no doubt but lets not rewrite history here. Lee was long gone by then which anyone who follows cricket would no.
This is overhyped honestly. Lee wasnt even at his peak anymore and the pitch was flat as pancake. Any decent batsman could of scored big that day.
Brett Lee bowling to AB while riding a unicorn and juggling flaming swords. Makes about as much sense as this headline haha
Oh yeah and I scored a 25-ball hundred against prime Wasim Akram last week in my backyard. Since we’re making up stuff that never happened
Fantastic knock regardless of who was bowling. AB de Villiers was one of the most destructive batsmen ever
This match against Australia in Johannesburg was truly special. The way AB paced his innings was masterclass – he was 50 off 25 balls and then exploded to reach 100 in just 14 more deliveries. The Australian bowlers had no answers that day.
