Just like the Indian fans, even Virat Kohli is clueless about why the pair of Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill just can’t leave each other. Their bromance never fails to crack up the fans and the hilarious videos instantly go viral on social media.
Virat Kohli recently sat down for an interview and talked about the bromance Kishan and Gill share. The funny nature of their friendship made Kohli call them the Seeta and Geeta of the team.
For the unversed, ‘Seeta Aur Geeta‘ is a 1972 comedy film about identical twin sisters. So Kohli wanted to say that Gill and Kishan are simply inseparable.
Bohot funny hain (They are very funny), Seeta and Geeta. I have no clue what's going on either. I can't say much, but they can't stay alone without each other during the tour. If we go out for food, they will come together. During discussions as well, they are always together. I haven't seen them alone. They are great friends. Virat Kohli said during the event
Here’s the video:
Ishan Kishan revealed how the bromance with Shubman Gill started during an episode of KBC
Last year, Ishan Kishan, after asking the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for a break, appeared in an episode of the Kaun Banega Crorepati, hosted by the legendary Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan. There the 25-year-old cricketer revealed how his bromance with Shubman Gill started.
Me and Gill are very good friends, and we care for each other as well. We became friends when teams like India A, India B, and India C existed with high-performing players from various states. He was in my team, but I did not get to know him until he came to sleep in my room. Ishan Kishan said
Kishan then added that from then onwards, he and Gill started eating together during tours, which made their friendship very deep. Both Gill and Kishan are playing in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) for Gujarat Titans (GT) and Mumbai Indians (MI) respectively.
They played against each other when the two teams locked horns on March 24, with GT winning the match by six runs in Ahmedabad. Kishan has so far scored 161 runs from five matches, while Gill, who also captains GT, collected 255 runs from six matches.
