New Zealand skipper says fortunate to have played
against the Indian counterpart

New Delhi(Agencies) : Natural
ability married to insatiable hunger for improvement – that's New Zealand
skipper Kane Williamson's assessment of his India counterpart Virat Kohli and
his record-breaking batting achievements.
Williamson highlighted the
difference in Kohli in comparison to 2008 when he made his ODI debut.
"You can say that it was
only a matter of time before he (Kohli) was making some strong inroads to the
full international scene," Williamson was quoted as saying in Star Sports
show ‘Cricket Connected’.
"At the moment, leading the
way in cricket and setting the standard as a batter and breaking all these
records – a lot of that probably has to come down to his maturity, his ability
to make very good decisions," he said.
Williamson said he was fortunate
to have played against Kohli.
"Not only is he gifted with
his ability, but you're marrying that up with this constant drive and hunger to
improve and just be better day in and day out," he said.
"It has been great to meet
at a young age and follow his progress and journey," Williamson added.
