Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers are known to share a great bond as the duo played alongside for more than a decade at Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). Time and again, they have openly talked about their bond and how they share huge mutual respect. An example for the same came once again when AB de Villiers shared a special message for Virat Kohli on his 34th birthday.

 

The South African great AB de Villiers shared a post via Royal Challengers Bangalore’s social media handles, wishing Happy Birthday to Virat Kohli who turned 34 on 5 November 2022.

 

In the video, the South African legend said, “Hello V, my biscuit. I hope you are doing well. I am currently in Bangalore. It’s quite ironic because I am sitting here and sending this message just to wish you a very happy birthday on fifth of November. I hope you have a fantastic day. You are one hell of a cricket player. But you are much better human being.”

Mr 360 in the video also wished him and the Indian side “all the very best with the World Cup”, but also wished that they find South Africa against them in the final of the marquee tournament.


The South Africa legend is currently in Bangalore ahead of the IPL 2023 Mini Auction. The former cricketer announced retirement from all formats of cricket in November last year but had confirmed that he’ll be back with his IPL franchise in Royal Challengers Bangalore in a different role.
