The freindship between Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers is not a hidden fact. The two gems of the game share a great mutual admiration and respect for each other. Their off-field camaraderie is very much visible on the field as well and their numerous breath-taking parternships are a proof of it. Spending so many years together at RCB has only strengthen this bond.
RCB captain Virat Kohli has said some great things about the South African star on multiple occasions. On Thursday as well, the 31-year-old shared a heartwarming picture with AB de Villiers and captioned it saying, “The most special thing about sport is the friendship and mutual respect you share with your teammates along your journey.
Sport is beautiful.”

Notably, after the scores of the two team were levelled at 201 from their alloted quota of 20 overs, Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers came down to chase the 8-run target in the Super Over. With one run needed of the last delivery, Virat Kohli had smashed his first boundary of the IPL 2020 to seal the win for his team who are in quest of their maiden IPL title.
During the post match presentation ceremony, Virat Kohli had revealed that he just blindly followed AB de Villiers to the field during the Super Over after the later had said, “I am going in”.
“Well, look, I thought about it, to be honest, but then I thought, okay, Jasprit [Bumrah]’s going to bowl, he’s going to use the longer boundary – who are the two guys that can probably run the first four balls for two, and that was me and AB. So AB said ‘I’m going’, I said ‘I’m coming with you.’ Yeah, look, it was all about just stepping onto the field, taking responsibility for the team, and yeah, we got a boundary each and got the job done,” Virat Kohli had said after the win.
