Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli remembered 'controversial' former franchise director Vijay Mallya for picking him in the team and providing an opportunity to rub shoulders with the world's best players. "My association with RCB has been special as it has been exciting from the first season. I was chosen to play for RCB by Mr Mallya. I have learnt so much and getting to play with the world's best players. "I am welcomed here warmly, I love this franchise, the city, fans, deep connection," he told reporters on the eve of his team's face-off with Sunrisers Hyderabad at Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru. Mallya, who has defaulted in loans in excess of Rs 9000 crore, is facing probe by various investigative agencies. The 60-year-old bought RCB in 2008 but the popular franchise has not been able to win a single Indian Premier League title in eight attempts.
