Virat Kohli on Wednesday described AB de Villiers as "the most talented cricketer" he has played with after the South African great was inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame.
De Villers was included in the long list of great players along with England legend Alastair Cook and India's Neetu David.
In an open letter to the inductees by those close to them, Kohli was effusive in praise of his teammate at IPL side Royal Bengaluru.
"You are Challengers thoroughly deserving of your place - after all, the Hall of Fame is a representation of your impact on the game, and yours has been truly unique," he wrote.
