IPL 2020: Predicting the MVP of each team in the tournament
These players can make some serious impact when in full flow.
4. KKR – Andre Russell
The big Jamaican Andre Russell will always be the one KKR player to watch out for in every season of the IPL. He is a monster in T20 cricket and has wreaked havoc all around the world with his batting. The IPL started experiencing his prowess since 2015 even though he made his debut in 2012.
Since 2015 Andre Russell has been striking at a rate of 160+ in every IPL and last year he took it to the next level. With 209.27 the Jamaican was at the top of the list of highest strike-rates in the IPL 2019. Russell’s batting prowess overshadows the fact that he is an all-rounder who can also bowl at 140+. In 64 IPL matches so far he has taken 55 wickets, which any bowler can be proud of.
So be it batting or bowling Dre Russ is there to deliver. His all-round abilities make him one of the most valuable players not only for the KKR but also in the entire league. The success of Kolkata Knight Riders will hugely depend on the form of Andre Russell. We have seen in the last couple of season that the Knights are heavily dependent on the big guy and looks like the upcoming edition will be no different.
