<p>Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni's bromance is well known in the cricketing fraternity. While Dhoni is much senior to Kohli, the latter thrived under his leadership and became a household name in the country post the retirements of stalwarts such as Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Virender Sehwag, etc.</p>

<p>On the other hand, Dhoni continued to serve Indian cricket for over two years under his successor Kohli and helped the 33-year-old become a better captain. Hence, the two share a great camaraderie both on and off the field. A fine example of their healthy relationship was on display when Kohli lavished praise on Dhoni after the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper's 6-ball 18* led the Yellow Army to a thrilling 4-wicket win over Delhi Capitals (DC) in Qualifier 1 of IPL 2021.</p>

<p>Dhoni, who came out to bat in the penultimate over with CSK needing 24 off 11 balls, had a string of poor outings prior to DC versus CSK Qualifier 1 clash, at Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai. However, he turned it around when it mattered the most to take Chennai to their ninth IPL final and, thus, silenced his critics in style.</p>

<p>Following his knock, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain Kohli couldn't keep calm and praised Dhoni.</p>
