The invincible IPL XI featuring one player from the 11 champion sides so far

#7 Andre Russell - Kolkata Knight Riders (2012, 2014)

Andre Russell is almost the complete package that you can get in the shortest format. On his day, he can demotivate any bowling attack and his numbers speak for himself. His strike rate of 177.29 is the highest in the Indian Premier League and he remains the only player to have a strike rate above 170.

In KKR's second match of the 2018 season against Chennai Super Kings, Russell came into bat when his team were struggling at 89-5 and did the unexpected. From that situation, he took his team to 202 at the end of 20 overs. In his unbeaten 36-ball 88 run innings, he hit 11 sixes and helped his team post a huge total but a Sam Billings special took CSK home.

He also proved his worth with the ball time and again picking 43 wickets in 43 matches. For Kolkata Knight Riders, he is the joint fourth highest wicket-taker and has used the hardball effectively on various occasions. Russell is one of the most devastating all-rounders in the world right now and KKR are lucky to have him in their team.
