5 highest partnerships in the IPL

#2 AB de Villiers and Virat Kohli

Arguably the two modern greats, and arguably two players who demand stadiums to be full when they bat, AB de Villiers, and Virat Kohli are redefining modern-day batting.

Back in 2015, Virat Kohli won the toss and elected to bat first when AB de Villiers decided to waddle in, look around and forced the Mumbai Indians bowling attack to surrender.

While de Villiers was making a mockery of the bowling attack, Virat Kohli proved to be an able ally at the other end and together they sliced through the hosts.

With four sixes and 19 fours, de Villiers remained unconquered at 133, while Kohli slammed four sixes and six fours to finish unbeaten on 82.

Together, they put up a stand of 215 as RCB finished with 235.

Mumbai Indians never got going as they were bundled out for 196 in response.
