Virat Kohli and Yuvraj Singh sent words of support to AB de Villiers after he released a statement clearing the air about his selection ahead of the World Cup.
De Villiers posted his statement on Instagram.
Kohli commented saying: “My brother you are the most honest and committed man I know. It’s been unfortunate to see this happen to you. But know that we stand with you and believe in you. Seeing people enter your personal space has been sad to see and uncalled for. More love and power to you and your beautiful family. Me and Anushka are Always here for you guys.”
Yuvraj followed this up with an equally respectful message: “My dear friend and legend, your one of the nicest guys I’ve ever played cricket with and an absolute gem of a person! There was never a chance for SA in this World Cup to win without you! It is your country’s loss not to have you in the squad, not yours. The bigger the player more the criticism! We all know what a gentleman you are.”
