New Delhi: Former Australian speedster Brett Lee on Wednesday heaped praise on in-form Indian batsman Virat Kohli and even compared him with legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar.

Kohli, who has been going through a purple patch with the willow has scored 91, 59 and 117 in the first three ODIs against the Aussies.

His first maiden ton against Australia Down Under at MCG, helped him to become the fastest batsman to reach 7000-run mark and 24 ODI centuries in international cricket.

Lee also spoke about the Indian bowling in the series and seems impressed with the new Indian pacer Barinder Sran.
