7 Cricketers and their batting averages before and after marriage

6. AB de Villiers:

AB de Villiers recently became a proud father. Having proposed to his long-time girlfriend Danielle at the iconic Taj Mahal in India, AB has found a good leap in his average in ODIs after getting married.

De Villiers averaged just 50.38 before marriage in the 50-over format and has moved to 64.14 post-wedding. He has gained more than almost 14 points in his ODI average.

In the Tests though, AB remained at the same constant level, averaging in the vicinity of 50s, from 50.50 to 50.29. It has come down a bit but not significantly to make any conclusion!
