Kohli going through tough times

RCB has been remembering de Villiers this season after de Villiers announced his retirement from all forms of cricket. The franchise strengthened the top order by picking Faf du Plessis, as well as making him their captain. At the same time, AB de Villiers is excited to see Kohli as a great batsman in IPL 2022. However, Kohli is going through a tough time as he has not been able to score with the bat in recent times. But AB de Villiers believes that the former RCB captain will cross the 600-run mark this year

But de Villiers is hopeful

Speaking on streaming YouTube channel VUSport, he said, “Everyone knows about Faf du Plessis coming in as captain. I think the most exciting thing for me is not having Virat as captain and releasing a little pressure “It’s really just for him to be free. I’m looking forward to a very big season from Virat. I’m looking at 600+ runs from him this year.”

Faf also praised

He shared his expectations from the players of the RCB camp, mainly the young players of the team, to develop themselves with the franchise this season. De Villiers said, “He (Kohli) will talk to Faf, but Faf is also very experienced. He has got good cricket training and will allow Virat and some of the youngsters to just go and unwind and enjoy the IPL.” De Villiers said, “I don’t know what to expect (from RCB), but I expect some people to really move on from the RCB setup in this IPL.”
