South African stars AB de Villiers, Dale Steyn and Chris Morris have joined the Royal Challengers Bangalore squad in Dubai. RCB tweeted a video of the South African trio reaching the Waldorf Astoria Hotel early on Saturday.

They briefly spoke about their journey and getting accustomed to the new normal. De Villiers said he was “excited and happy to be here”.

South African pacer Dale Steyn seems to be already feeling the heat. “It’s going to be interesting to play in the heat. We got here at 3 in the morning and it was steaming outside,” said Steyn.
