Abu Dhabi, Nov 20 Explosive West Indies allrounder Andre Russell has showered praise on Virat Kohli, saying the Indian skipper is a tremendous player who needs at times five-ten words to be described him as a player. "He (Virat) is a tremendous player. Sometimes, you may have to put fiveten words together to actually describe him as a player. He is such a determined guy," Russell told IANS on the sidelines of the ongoing Abu Dhabi T10 league. "Virat is a true champion. I just hope that he can keep entertaining the fans. He has been performing well in Test cricket, ODIs and T20I cricket. He is a proper all-round player," he added. The big-hitting Windies all-rounder further said that Kohli's technique is a lot more classical than his. "Virat's technique is a lot different from mine. It's more classical than mine. I am more awkward batter where my technique is not that smooth," Russell said. "My technique is all about power and brute force. I try to hit the ball as hard as possible off every delivery I face," he added.
