Former South African cricketer AB de Villiers praised Virat Kohli for winning "Player of the Series" honours after the ace batter's outstanding performance in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. The former Proteas player praised Kohli on Twitter and wrote: "David Kohli! many levels." In the last ODI on Sunday, Kohli was at the top of his game, smashing an unbeaten 166 off 110 balls—laced with 13 fours and eight maximums—to record his 46th ODI century. He now has 21 home ODI hundreds, surpassing Sachin Tendulkar's previous record of 20.
