Virat Kohli labelled AB de Villiers as the "most impactful player" in the IPL after the South African batsman's belligerent half-century helped Banglore pull off an unlikely victory against Rajasthan Royals on Saturday.

On Saturday the right-handed batsman hit an unbeaten 55 off just 22 balls to help his side chase down a 178-run target for a seven-wicket win against Steve Smith-led Rajasthan.

"In my eyes he's the most impactful match-winner in the IPL," RCB captain Kohli said.
