IPL 2018, KKR vs MI: Hits and Misses

#2 Miss: Andre Russell

Russell fa
Andre Russell failed with both bat and ball in this game.

Andre Russell was always going to a key player for KKR. Just before the tournament, he was injured but he recovered well and has played every game this season. However, he hasn’t looked comfortable at all, especially with the ball. He has struggled to get through his overs and has rarely completed his quota of 4 overs. His batting form was excellent at the start but that has faded away as well.

In this game, the West Indian all-rounder opened the bowling and conceded just 5 runs in his first over. He then came back in the 12th over and struggled big time. Hence, he bowled just 2 overs (conceding 16 runs) and didn’t look like he was at his best, especially in terms of fitness.

Chasing 211, Russell was always going to be a vital player. However, he failed to get going and managed only 2 off 4 deliveries. Thus, it was a poor game for the West Indian all-rounder.
