Phil Salt, the opening batter for Royal Challengers Bengaluru, initially referred to Virat Kohli as a colleague rather than a friend. However, he later made a u-turn to avoid controversy, stating that everyone he has played with is his friend. The duo has formed a strong opening pair for RCB this season, with Kohli leading the team with 443 runs in 10 matches. Salt has also excelled in his role as an aggressor at the top of the order. Kohli recently scored his sixth half-century against Delhi Capitals, helping RCB maintain their unbeaten away record. He emphasized the importance of partnerships in T20 cricket and the need for professionalism to dominate bowlers. Despite initially downplaying his friendship with Kohli, Salt clarified that he considers all his teammates as friends. The duo’s performance on the field has been crucial to RCB’s success this season.
