AB de Villiers has ruled himself out of the Test series against England in July-August and is targeting a return to the format only in the 2017-18 home summer, when India and Australia tour South Africa. He has also opted out of the home Tests against Bangladesh later this year.
"I'm just not ready yet," de Villiers told reporters in Centurion, ahead of South Africa's first T20 against Sri Lanka. "I'm aware of my elbow. The surgeon said it will be normal. I'm feeling really confident.
