IPL 2019: Best players in each department for KKR

#2 Best All-rounder: Andre Russell

Andre Russell

Kolkata Knight Riders have some brilliant all-rounders like Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, Nitish Rana and Carlos Brathwaite in the squad but Andre Russell happens to be the best among them.

The hard-hitting Caribbean all-rounder, Andre Russell is arguably one of the best T20 all-rounders at the moment. He is someone who has the ability to win matches single-handedly for his team with both bat and ball. The 30-year-old has been an integral part of the Kolkata-based franchise in the last few seasons.

Russell has made a total of 50 IPL appearances for KKR till date. From these matches, he has smashed 890 runs at an average of 26.97 and an unbelievable strike rate of 177.29 with 88 being his highest score. In bowling, he has 44 wickets to his name with 20/4 being his best.

Andre Russell will surely be one of the most important players for KKR in the forthcoming season of IPL. It will be fascinating to see if he could live up to the expectations of his fans and franchise.
