WATCH: OUCH! When AB de Villiers almost lost his head as RCB players pounced on him to celebrate

Even though no damage was done, AB could have been injured the way RCB players pounced on him to celebrate.

New Delhi: The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) players were on the verge of the boundary line, ready to jump into the field waiting for the winning runs against Gujarat Lions in Qualifier 1 on Tuesday.

And as AB de Villiers hit the second ball of the penultimate over for a single, the players rushed into the field as RCB had pulled off victory from jaws of defeat.
