WTC Final: Virat Kohli and Kane Williamson share a lot of mutual respect and admiration, says VVS Laxman

World Test Championship final: Former batsman VVS Laxman said New Zealand have the advantage of match practice before the big final but added that he is confident India will be able to rally against the odds and give their best in Southampton.

Former India batsman VVS Laxman said he doesn't see any competition or rivalry between Virat Kohli and Kane Williamson and expects the two men to lead from the front in the World Test Championship final, starting June 18 in Southampton. Virat Kohli and Kane Williamson will be eyeing to win their first ICC trophy as captains as the two teams booked a place in the final of the inaugural edition of the World Test Championship. Despite being two of the most celebrated cricketers going around, Virat Kohli and Kane Williamson share a fine camaraderie. The two have often spoken highly about one another and the bonding was evident during India's tour of New Zealand last year where they shared multiple conversations along the boundary ropes.
