Reminiscing, the Indian skipper recollected the first time he met AB de Villiers, “I remember the first time we met after you were picked up by RCB. It was in Johannesburg and we came down the tunnel. You guys were finishing practice and we were just starting ours. I came and said hello and said we are going to be teammates and you were like 'I am excited for that'. Such a brief chat. 9 years we have been such good friends and such a great journey. Yeah, it's been wonderful.”
