IPL 2021: Discussed quitting RCB captaincy with AB de Villiers in 2019, says Virat Kohli

Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli said he had discussed the idea of giving up captaincy in the Indian Premier League with his good friend and teammate, AB de Villiers as early as 2019. Kohli said he wanted to continue after Mike Hesson came on board, prompting a structural change in the management of the RCB.

Virat Kohli said all he wanted to create was a peaceful environment during the IPL season and that prompted him to think about giving up captaincy.Notably, Kohli had announced last month that he would give up the captaincy of RCB after IPL 2021, days after he said he would be stepping down as India captain in the T20Is after the T20 World Cup. Kohli said he took the decision, keeping in mind his workload and that he wanted to focus more on Tests and ODIs in the near future.IPL 2021, RCB vs DC | MI vs SRH Live UpdatesSpeaking to Star Sports ahead of the historic day when two league matches were played simultaneously as RCB took on table-toppers Delhi Capitals and defending champions Mumbai Indians take on Sunrisers Hyderabad with a mountain to climb if they are to qualify for the play-offs.”About this decision, I had spoken to AB in 2019. It’s not new. With the IPL, I was always in a space where I wanted to create a peaceful environment.. We had this discussion and then I thought we will give it one more year. A restructuring of the management happened and things were much better in 2020. I felt a little more relaxed in that stage,” Virat Kohli said.Virat Kohli has led RCB to the play-offs for the second successive season. The former finalists, who were knocked out in the eliminator last year, are sure to finish at the 3rd spot and play the eliminator 1 once again.Meanwhile, AB de Villiers said he has absolutely enjoyed playing under Virat Kohli’s captaincy and would want to help his good friend finish his captaincy stint on a high by winning the trophy in IPL 2021.”Virat Kohli has had an unbelievable run as captain. I am privileged to play under him. I have been a fan of him letting it go for the last few years purely because of the pressure he has taken on board over the years with the Indian team and the IPL,” de Villiers said.”I felt that this could be an environment where he could have a little bit of fun. Sort of step away from Indian cricket and have a little bit of fun in the T20s in the IPL with all the friends and then go into the high-pressure environment with India in all the formats,” he added.”That’s been the chat for the last couple of years. It’s got nothing to do with his ability as captain. We all know that, he has been unbelievable for us. He has always led from the front and made the best possible decisions for the team and I think he has had a fantastic run.”I would absolutely love to put the cherry on the cake and finish the season with a trophy.”After the IPL, Kohli will lead India in the T20 World Cup in the UAE as the former champions look to end their 8-year-long wait for an ICC title.
