IPL can be criticized for plenty, but we should all be thankful for being able to watch AB de Villiers and Virat Kohli bat together.

Mr. 360 for a reason.
Virat Kohli can play every shot that's in the cricket book. Ab De Villiers can play every shot that's not in the cricket book.

And Varun Aaron and Jordan as your other options.
That's how much you need to score when Stuart Binny is your Strike Bowler. #RCBvGL

There was no warning though.
The @RCBTweets uniform today is environment friendly. Not bowler friendly. #RCBvGL
