RCB's iconic trio of Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, and Chris Gayle reunited ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023.

On Sunday (March 26), Royal Challengers Bangalore inducted the duo of De Villiers and Gayle into their Hall of Fame. The Bangalore-based franchise also retired their jersey numbers.

Both the legendary cricketers landed in Bangalore on Saturday (March 25) along with Kohli, who joined the RCB camp for the upcoming edition of IPL.

As soon as the trio made their way into the Chinnaswamy Stadium, the fans present at the venue went ballistic as they made huge cheers.

In a video doing rounds on social media, AB de Villiers and Chris Gayle were seen greeted by the capacity crowd while Kohli was spotted capturing the moment on his mobile and asking the fans to cheer louder.

In another viral clip, RCB anthem was played at the venue with Kohli, De Villiers, Gayle and other RCB players doing a lap of honour at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.

RCB will open their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 campaign against Mumbai Indians (MI) at Chinnaswamy Stadium on April 2.
