New Delhi: It is well known that star Indian batsman Virat Kohli is fondly called ‘chiku’ by his teammates inside the national dressing room. Apart from this, Kohli has been given various other nicknames across the cricketing fraternity such as ‘run machine’, ‘King Kohli’, ‘chase master’, which people use while talking about his batting skills.
However, the 30-year-old Indian skipper got one more nickname following his prolific ton in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
After Kohli scored a match-winning hundred against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Eden Gardens Friday, de Villiers heaped praise on his Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain and called him ‘little biscuit’.

“VIRAT!!!!!!!!!!! you little biscuit. Top knock from Moeen Ali as well. Bowlers to follow through what’s been a very good 1st half,” said de Villiers on Twitter.
De Villiers was not 100 per cent fit before the start of the game and Kohli decided to rest him.
