Ab de Villers disclosed the true cause of his retirement, claiming that he had a detached retina during the final two years of his career. "The doctor really asked me, 'How in the world did you play cricket like this?' after I had surgery. For the final two years of his career, fortunately, his left eye performed admirably, Ab de Villers told Wisden Cricket. De Villiers, who has represented South Africa in 114 Tests, 228 ODIs, and 78 T20Is, stated that Covid was a major factor in his decision to keep his international retirement in place.
