There is no denying the fact that when Dre-Russ smashes the ball, a blow, it stays hit. On Monday, fans of Andre Russell got to witness another angle to that. An angle where the ball comes zipping at a batman’s face when the batsman is meant to react and duck, but Russell smashed the ball.

A video posted by the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) franchise on their social media pages on Monday, where he is seen batting in the nets, has one of his powerful strokes break which ended up breaking the camera glass.

With the two-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders starting their IPL 2020 campaign against Mumbai Indians (MI) on Wednesday, KKR will be expecting more of those muscular blows from the bat of Andre Russell. He is a batsman who has at times single-handedly changed the course of the game for the KKR in the past, and his avid fans would hope for more of that.

Last year, Russell was KKR’s star performer as he had amassed 504 runs the fifth-highest run-scorer in the tournament – at an average of 56.66 and a strike-rate of 204.81, including four half-centuries. Apart from that, he was also their highest wicket-taker as he had scalped 11 wickets at a strike rate of under 17.

Under the captaincy of Dinesh Karthik, KKR will be hoping to have Russell performing the way he seems to be at the net session and will need other crucial cogs as Karthik, Eoin Morgan, Pat Cummins, Shubman Gill to come up with their best as well if they want to add to their titles of 2012 and 2014.
