De Villiers said, "I am not surprised at all. I am very happy for Virat and Rohit. You want to bring your best team to win the T20 World Cup. Yes, I understand the criticism that young players may miss out. And guys who are playing all the time. I was in a similar situation at the end of my career and it didn't work out for me. It's working for Virat and Rohit and I think it's the right move, "A smart move because you want your experienced players to be there and they've been there and done it before and they can try and win the World Cup for you."

The former cricketer further said, "Virat has grown up with cricket in his blood and that is what drives him forward. The same thing that helped me move forward and at the end of my career when the fire started to die down I stopped it . I think he has a great balance in his life with his family and he spends some time with them. He has started managing his career well which I could have done better towards the end of my career "
