"For his sake I hope he gets past the 1000-run barrier. It will be a massive achievement for Kohli and it would be great to witness someone of his class going past a 1000 runs in a single IPL season," Warner was quoted by India Today Television.
"As a human being he is very passionate, he likes visualising everything. He trains hard and I always see him in the gym. I'm not saying that everybody should train the way he does but that's just how he gets the best out of himself.
"That's why we are all witnessing a young kid who's going to make a legend status out of himself," the Sunrisers skipper added.
Warner too has been in great form in the ongoing tournament, the Australian opener has scored 658-runs in 14 games.
