AB de Villiers asked to reveal what Virat Kohli whispered in his ears; Mr. 360 avoids a repeat of last year's blunder
A year ago, AB de Villiers blundered by disclosing personal information about Virat Kohli during one of his appearances on his YouTube channel. It made him regret as he acknowledged his "mistake." Having learnt from past experience, the former South Africa international chose to keep his chat with Kohli a secret when the two met right before the start of the IPL 2025 final in Ahmedabad. De Villiers has been part of the broadcasting unit of the IPL over the last few days, and, hence, was seen at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Tuesday for the final between RCB and the Punjab Kings. Seeing friend and former RCB teammate warming up before the final, he walked over to Kohli, and the two shared a hug before the latter was seen whispering something into his ears. Later, during the commentary through RCB's innings, De Villiers, who was part of the RCB unit the last time they played a final nine years back, was poked to disclose what Kohli told him during their emotional reunion. Still, the veteran batter did not reveal it. He said: "I'm not allowed to say what Kohli told me." After Kohli took a break from cricket at the start of 2024, skipping the home series against England, it sparked a wide range of speculations, with few experts even questioning its timing. In response to the critics, De Villiers, taking to his YouTube channel, revealed that he was away from national duty as he and his wife, Anushka Sharma, were expecting their second child. A few days later, he sharply retracted his statement, saying that he had 'made a big mistake.' Speaking to Dainik Bhaskar on the sidelines of the then-ongoing SA20 league in South Africa, he said: "Family comes first and then Cricket. I made a terrible mistake on my YouTube channel. That information was wrong and not true at all. Virat has every right to take a break from national duties due to family reasons. I think whatever's best for Virat's family, comes first. No one knows what's happening there, all I can do is wish him well. Whatever the reason for his break, I hope he can come back stronger, better, and fresh from this." As it turned out, Kohli and Anushka did welcome their second child, a son named Akaay, on February 15, 2024. The couple had announced the news on social media.

IPL match today: Jitesh Sharma plays ABD-like scoop vs PBKS, RCB legend reacts
AB de Villiers was plenty impressed when the Royal Challengers Bengaluru legend saw Jitesh Sharma play a scoop shot to Kyle Jamieson's pace delivery in the IPL 2025 final on Tuesday. The wicket-keeper batter attacked the Punjab Kings bowler soon after RCB lost Virat Kohli, leaving them at 131/4 with five overs to go. Jitesh Sharma led RCB's charge against Punjab, hitting two sixes off Jamieson. The first of the two maximums left Mr 360, AB de Villiers, impressed. The South African legend, who was sitting in the commentary box, was asked about the scoop shot when he said 'Sharma is on fire'. On the first delivery of the 17th over, Kyle Jamieson went with a short-ish delivery to Jitesh Sharma, who stayed in the line while scooping the ball for a six over the wicketkeeper's head. IPL 2025: RCB vs PBKS final live score 'He was already ready for the shot. This is intensity,' AB de Villiers immediately reacted. Sharma, however, was not done. He was again challenged with a short ball, which he deposited over long-off. The 31-year-old was ultimately dismissed for 24 off 10 deliveries as he swung hard at Vijaykumar Vyshak's length ball. The inside edge went onto the back thigh before disturbing the off stump.
