Kohli’s energy praised fiercely
Regarding Virat Kohli, de Villiers said, “I remember my last cricket days, not saying that Kohli has only a few years left, maybe he should play 5 more years. But even at this age, the energy, the desire of victory and the feeling of playing for the team, is a very compliment.”
Competition in Ahmedabad on 3 June
RCB will now play the final at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on 3 June. They will compete with the winner of qualifier 2 to be held between Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians.
Davilirs expected
Although Kohli scored only 12 runs against Punjab, De Villiers believes that the real performance will be seen in the final. He said, “When I saw him getting off the team today, the focus and passion was clearly visible in his eyes. Such a feeling of the senior player of the team motivates the entire group. Whether the run scored today or not, but Kohli will give his best in the final.”
