Virat Kohli seems to be in great spirits ahead of the IPL 2020. The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper is enjoying his time during the practice session and it was evident with the way he recreated AB de Villiers’ one-handed stunner.

The official handle of RCB shared a picture on Twitter, in which Kohli can be seen pulling off the catch in the exact same manner De Villiers did two years ago.

“Captain Kohli casually recreating AB’s ‘Superman’ catch in training last evening,” RCB captioned the post.

Kohli also tweeted the picture with the caption "Brothers in the Air" and tagged AB de Villiers.

During an IPL 2018 match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), De Villiers' catch had defied gravity as he plucked the ball out of thin air near the boundary ropes to get rid of Alex Hales.

The 13th edition of Indian Premier League will be played in UAE from September 19 to November 10. RCB will open their campaign against SRH on September 21 in Dubai.
