Virat Kohli’s hilarious birthday wishes for Yuvraj Singh are straight from heart

One of the finest all-rounders of India Yuvraj Singh turned 40 on December 12, Sunday, and the cricket fraternity turned in numbers to wish their hero. However, there was one wish which stood out and it was from none other than India’s Test skipper Virat Kohli. Kohli, who has shared a great time and plethora of memories with Singh, turned up with a wholesome video wish.

In the clips shared on his IG stories, Kohli added that how he had a great time with former all-rounder during U19 days and how he welcomed him in the senior team as well. Kohli talked that he and Yuvraj had similar taste in various things owing to the Punjabi background and this is how they gelled up well.

“I had come in from the Under-19 World Cup; he welcomed me very nicely, made me comfortable, started joking around with me, and we liked similar kinds of food. We are both Punjabis, love Punjabi music, getting nice clothes, shoes (chuckles); all these kinds of things have remained common over the years. We used to go out and do quite a bit of shopping together in a group obviously; so, the likes were quite similar,” said Virat Kohli in a video wish to Yuvraj Singh.

Recalling one of the past incidents, Kohli stated how Yuvi came to him at 3.30 am saying that they are going to ride the bicycle to Colombo. All of them were on the floor while laughing at the hilarious idea, given that they had a match to play in the next two days. Singh bid farewell to international cricket in 2019.

“We were in Dambulla; it was a couple of days off a match and literally at 3 or 3:30 in the morning he goes, ‘We are gonna ride these bicycles to Colombo’ and I clearly remember we all fell down laughing on the floor because it was just outrageous. We had a match in two days’ time,” added Kohli.
