Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers were again at the top of their game as they stitched their third 100 plus partnership in four games to take Royal Challenger's Bangalore (RCB) to 185 in 20 overs against Rising Pune Super Supergiants (RPSG) and then were brilliant on the field, helping out their bowlers to defend the steep target. Twitterati went berserk after this royal performance and hailed the duo. Here are the best tweets from the game.
Brilliant run out. Virat Kohli shinning in all roles on the filed.

Kohli appeals for lbw, runs Smith out, becomes the third umpire himself, all of it in the same ball. Superman! #RPSvRCB

Kohli & AB are like Abhishek Bachchan & Uday Chopra from the dhoom films - their partnership stays standard, support cast changes! #RPSvRCB

That's why AB is the 'best batsman' in the world. It tough to match him in the middle--Kohli.

Just how humble is Kohli? Brilliant. #Respect
Is there anything he cannot do? #Kohli

Vijay Mallya should declare Virat Kohli and AB De Villiers as Directors of Kingfisher.

Nice clean shot for six...#RPSvRCB #IPL pic.twitter.com/kmRf7ZRAZp
The only duo which was more productive than Kohli & deVilliers was Dhritarashtra & Gandhari.

AB is a freak. Blessed to be alive to see him perform. No partnership is more threatening than AB-VK. Well played #RPSvRCB
