Virat Kohli Team Politics Struggles: AB de Villiers Reveals Chat: Virat Kohli may not have spoken to AB de Villiers for months, but when he did, it was not only to mend a friendship but also to seek perspective during a difficult phase in his career.
In an interview with Cricket.comformer South Africa captain de Villiers confirmed that Kohli contacted him during the 2024–25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy, following a period of personal silence after a public slip-up.

Despite the silence that preceded it, the relationship now seems intact. De Villiers expressed strong support for Kohli’s future.
