One Skipper to Another: Virat Kohli & Sunil Chettri’s Twitter Love

Sunil Chhetri and Virat Kohli indulged in some mutual admiration on Twitter following India’s SAFF Cup win on Sunday.

A foxy move, an extra-time goal and Sunil Chhetri yet again found himself guiding India to victory in the SAFF Cup. A 2-1 scoreline against Afghanistan and India won the title for a record seventh time.

The country celebrated, and so did a certain Virat Kohli.

Congratulations Team India for lifting the SAFF cup for the 7th time. That extra time winner from @chetrisunil11 was mind blowing! #INDvAFG

Appreciation, from one man carrying the expectations of an entire country, to another. Chhetri though was quick with his reply- wishing Kohli luck for the upcoming series in Australia.
