The duo of Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni was one of the most elemental pairs in Indian cricket history and when the two took care of the side, it felt as if the Indian pecking order are in safe arms. Just ahead of the 2022 Asia Cup, the Indian run-machine who has suffered a steep slump in his form rekindled memories of the past.
Celebrating 14 years of stepping foot in the international arcade, Kohli talked about the most enjoyable and exciting period of his prolonged cricketing career. The former Indian captain was heard quoting that the time he spent as the deputy to Mahi, was the best time of his life on the field.

Here is what Virat Kohli had to say about MS Dhoni
The 33-year-old Virat played the deputy to MS Dhoni for a long time before being handed over the captaincy of the longer version of the game in 2014 and the leadership of Team India in all formats of the sport in 2017 after MS stepped down from the pedestal.
Kohli took to Twitter and was heard quoting, “Being this man’s trusted deputy was the most enjoyable and exciting period in my career. Our partnerships would always be special to me forever. 7+18.”
If you add the two numbers that Kohli posted, the jersey numbers of both would come to 25, that was yesterday’s date. It was also a digital masterstroke where talking about the lost memories of VK and Mahi felt ideal.

Kohli and Dhoni have been a part of several remarkable partnerships where the duo has ushered India across the finishing line. The snap that Kohli used was from the remarkable Indo-Australian battle in the 2016 T20I World Cup where VK played an unbeaten knock of 82 runs from just 51 balls to steer India to the Promised Land. With the Asia Cup 2022 lurking on the horizon, Indian fans would be hoping to see the former captain return to his utmost glory.
