AB de Villiers once again shown his powerful batting today in world cup match against West Indies as he manage to hit the fastest 150 in one-day international history. De Villiers reached 150 from 64 balls, beating the previous record, set by Australia's Shane Watson, by 19 balls.
The Proteas skipper utilised his full repertoire of strokes in an awesome display of batting, peppering the boundaries at a sun-bathed Sydney Cricket Ground with eight sixes and 17 fours in a 104-minute innings that will live long in the memory.
He shared stands of 134 runs with Rilee Rossouw (61), another of 48 with David Miller (20) and a third of 80 with Farhaan Behardien (10) to turn around his country's innings after West Indies had made a promising start to the match.
He finished unbeaten on 162 from 66 balls as South Africa made the second-highest total in World Cups. Only last month, he hit the fastest ODI hundred against the same team in Johannesburg, from 31 balls. In that same innings, South Africa's captain also set the record for the fastest fifty in ODIs, from 16 balls.
