Andre Russell was hit with a one-year ban for a doping violation due to which he had to miss the 2017 season of the IPL. Along with Ben Stokes, Russell is the most lethal pace bowling all-rounder doing the rounds in the international circuit. He has shown in the past seasons of the IPL and BBL that he is capable of turning a match around single-handedly.
