De Villiers had said Kohli and Anushka were expecting their second child which led to the star Indian batter missing the first two Tests against England.
Without mentioning the series in which the incident took place, speculated to be South Africa's tour of India in 2015, Elgar agreed on a podcast that he had showdowns with Kohli and Ashwin.
At the same time, de Villiers feels if India manage to control the expectations around them, then the team could go a long way in the tournament.
With the ICC World Cup round the corner, there has been a lot of discussion around who will bat at No. 4 for Team India.
'I think the first thing that comes to mind to me is his composure. Calm, relaxed kind of guy. Never seems to be fussed by anything, which is a very good sign as a captain,' said the South African great.
The South African great joined RCB in 2011 and established a rapport with Kohli.
De Villiers, who quit all forms of cricket a few months back and did not participate in IPL 2022 in which RCB will play their Eliminator match on Wednesday, said he was not yet sure in what capacity he will return.
The challenges that batsmen face towards the finals overs of an innings in limited overs games are numerous and complicated than the ones faced by those at the top of the order.
He is accused of racism by former teammate Paul Adams.
One of contemporary cricket's greatest batters, de Villiers has brought an end to his glorious 17-year career in top-flight.
