South African cricketer AB de Villiers took to Instagram to inform his followers of the newest addition in his family. He revealed that his wife Danielle had given birth to their third child, a daughter on November 11. The couple’s first two children were sons. The daughter has been named Yente de Villiers.

de Villiers had just returned to South Africa after the conclusion of the Indian Premier League where the Proteas batsman had an excellent season as he came up with a plethora of match-winning knocks for his side. Although, his side Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) could not get their hands on the trophy that has been eluding them for quite some time, they did manage to reach the playoffs riding on de Villiers’ brilliance.

‘Grateful beyond measure’
