T20 World Cup 2022: 10 prominent IPL stars who will not feature in the tournament
The T20 World Cup 2022 next month in October will not feature some of the most sought after IPL names.
2. Andre Russell
Andre Russell is arguably among the most destructive batters in the T20 circuit at the moment. The ace allrounder is a match-winner with both bat and ball and has proved his pedigree on the bigger stages.
Unfortunately, Russell was not able to make it to the West Indies team for the upcoming global event due to poor form. Chief selector Haynes said “We're still not convinced yet, he's not performing as well as we would like to see him in the competition. I think in the situation with Andre Russell, we've just decided to move on, and look for someone who's in form, and doing well in the T20 format."
Russell was in top form in IPL this year. The Jamaica-born amassed 335 runs in 14 matches for Kolkata Knight Riders at a strike rate of 174.48 and even took 17 wickets with the ball. With Russell not going to the World Cup, bowlers around the world will be relieved for sure.
