Virat Kohli tweeted an emotional farewell to former South African captain and RCB teammate AB de Villiers, who recently called time on his illustrious international career.
AB de Villiers shocked the cricketing community when he announced his sudden retirement from all forms of international cricket on May 23 via a video message on his official Twitter account. The South African star shared a close bond with India skipper Virat Kohli with both of them representing
the same franchise, Royal Challengers Bangalore, in the Indian Premier League (IPL). On Saturday, Kohli took to Twitter and posted an emotional farewell message for his "brother", saying "you've changed the way batting was seen in the time you've played international cricket."
A couple of weeks ago, Kohli and De Villiers shared a 118-run stand in RCB's win over Delhi Daredevils at the Feroz Shah Kotla. Following the win, Kohli had posted a special message for De Villiers, saying, "have always loved batting with this guy. Makes things simpler for the person at the other end."
