ICC Champions Trophy 2017: Would have been more attacking if I knew it would only be 27 overs, says Ab De Villiers

Ab de Villiers said that South Africa didn't respond well to Pakistan's bowling performance in their innings that led to their eventual defeat. He also said that, led by David Miller's contribution, the Proteas recovered well. “They bowled pretty well, put us under pressure. We lost some wickets, which wasn't a great response for us, but we recovered well as a result of David and added guys who set up partnerships

South Africa found themselves 116/6 midway through their innings and it had been David Miller's partnerships with Chris Morris and Kagiso Rabada that took them to a total of 219 after 50 overs. De Villiers also commended South Afica's fielding while defending the total. The Proteas didn't let Pakistan try to escape with the chase and was able to restrict them at 119/3 before rains lashed
