#4 Andre Russell v Andrew Tye
The West Indian all-rounder Andre Russell has been the most potent power-hitter in the IPL so far and has shown time and again that he can turn a game on its head within a couple of overs. He has an incredible strike rate of 239.06, which is the highest in the tournament (minimum 100 balls faced) and what makes it even more impressive is the fact that he has recorded an average of 51.

His contributions towards the tail end of the innings are absolutely crucial for KKR and against the Kings XI Punjab, he will come up against one of the better death bowlers in the IPL in the form of Australian Andrew Tye.
The right-arm bowler’s changes of pace, lengths and slower balls have made him one of the most effective T20 bowlers in the world. In the last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, he bottled up the opposition and returned figures of 23/2 in 4 overs. In the slog overs of the KKR innings, this particular battle could prove to be absolutely crucial for the fortunes of both teams.
