IPL 2021: 'Virat Kohli A Genius Batsman, Extremely Difficult To Bowl Against', Says Chris Morris

IPL 2021: Chris Morris said this while talking about cricketers against whom bowling has proved to be extremely difficult. Hardik Pandya's name is also included in this list by Morris.  

IPL 2021: Rajasthan Royals star all-rounder Chris Morris has described RCB and Team India captain Virat Kohli as a genius and said that bowling against him is the toughest. He has also included a number of international cricketers in his list against whom it has proved to be the most difficult to bowl. Apart from Kohli, Morris's list also includes Hardik Pandya of Mumbai Indians.  

According to Morris, "Virat Kohli is a genius in himself, his batting style is fantastic. It's also not easy to bowl against David Warner, he can destroy you with his aggressive batting." At the same time, he said, "A player that I don't like to bowl against is Kane Williamson. He is a brilliant batsman as well as a very quiet person. I would also like to add the name to Hardik Pandya to this list. The way he strikes the ball is worth watching."

Morris has also included compatriots AB de Villiers and Hashim Amla on the list. "It always bothers me that I have never been able to get De Villiers out," said Morris, who has bowled against these fellow players in different cricket leagues worldwide. He specializes in playing shots around the field. You can bowl them any kind of ball and he will strike it easily. I'm glad I've played cricket with him for many years." 

At the same time, he explained, "Hashim Amla is also a name on my list. It is most difficult to get him out in any format. I remember a T20 match when I was bowling against Amla He was striking the ball so easily that I didn't know where exactly Amla should be bowled.
