Virat Kohli launched the Royal Challengers Bangalore team jersey with South African great AB de Villiers and former India wicketkeeper Parthiv Patel on Monday.

The trio unveiled the home and away jerseys in Bengaluru.

Kohli, with his staggering new-found success in T20 Internationals, will hope the form translates for Royal Challengers Bangalore in this Indian Premier League season.

AB de Villiers

AB de Villiers believes Kohli's 'personality and mental strength' makes him the best ODI player at the moment.

De Villiers, who has retired from international cricket, will be seen batting alongside Kohli in IPL-12, beginning March 23.

On Global Recycling Day, the Royal Challengers Bangalore took to Twitter to declare multiple “Green games” during the coming season.

The jersey is a symbol of the franchise’s promise to #GoGreen and a way into stepping up to save the planet. 

The franchise begins its campaign with the season opener against the defending champions Chennai Super Kings.
