Former India cricketer Yuvraj Singh has played with Virat Kohli and made many special memories both on and off the field. In an Instagram post, he has now shared a very special message for Kohli and also gifted him a pair of boots. Now Virat has reacted to his post with a heartfelt note.

The 40-year-old has also given a special pair of golden boots to Virat Kohli and said “Mere liye tu hamesha Cheeku rahega aur duniya ke liye King Kohli (You will always remain Cheeku for me while King Kohli for the rest of the world). The post also contains a photo of the pair.

“Virat, I’ve seen you grow as a cricketer and as a person. From that young boy in the nets who would walk shoulder-to-shoulder with the legends of Indian cricket, you’re now a legend yourself leading the way for a new generation. Your discipline and passion on the field and dedication to the sport inspires every young kid in this country to pick up the bat and dream of putting on the blue jersey one day. You have elevated your level of cricket every single year and achieved so much already in this wonderful game that it makes me even more excited to watch you embark on this new chapter in your career, he wrote.

You have been a legendary captain and a fantastic leader. I’m expecting many more of your famous run chases. I’m glad to have shared a bond with you as a teammate and more so a friend. Scoring runs, pulling people’s legs, cheating meals, jamming to Punjabi songs and winning cups, we’ve done it all together. Mere liye tu hamesha Cheeku rahega aur duniya ke liye King Kohli. Always keep the fire inside you burning. You’re a superstar. Here’s a special golden boot for you. Keep making the country proud!” read the caption of the post, he added,

Your life and your comeback from cancer was, is and will always be an inspiration for people in all walks of life, not just cricket.
