The niceties between Kohli and Africa, meanwhile, is well-known in the cricketing fraternity. Kohli had gifted the swashbuckling all-rounder his jersey, signed by all the players, to Shahid Afridi when he retired from the international cricket last April. Earlier this year, Kohli had gifted Afridi a signed bat.
