#1 Andre Russell (KKR)

Talismanic West Indian all-rounder Andre Russell thrashed Punjab’s bowlers in all corners of the park in death overs. He was at his usual best during the last five overs and gave KKR the much-needed boost to put a massive total. Russell scored 48 runs in just 17 balls, where he hit five towering sixes along with three fours. It was his finish which took KKR to 218/4 in 20 overs. He backed up this performance with two wickets in his three overs, where he conceded just 21 runs.
