RCB have made the IPL playoffs in remarkable fashion. After securing only one win out of their first eight games, they staged a stunning comeback with six consecutive victories to clinch a play-off spot. De Villiers highlighted Kohli's crucial role in this turnaround. "When the team is down and out, a player like Kohli can play a huge role in lifting the spirits, and that's exactly what he did," he said. He noted that Kohli's intensity never wavered, even during the team's losing streak, demonstrating his unwavering commitment and leadership.
