IPL 2025: Was Hitting The Ball Well In Practice, Knew Something Big Was Coming, Says Russell
Kolkata Knight Riders: Kolkata Knight Riders’ (KKR) veteran all-rounder Andre Russell said he knew a big score from him was around the corner, citing that he was hitting the ball well in practice sessions.
At the Eden Gardens, Russell, who was struggling for good batting form, smashed 41 runs in 12 balls in the death overs, to end up at 57 not out off 25 balls, as KKR made 206/4 in 20 overs, which was enough to beat Rajasthan Royals (RR) by just one run.
"It's been a bit dry for the last couple of games, but I've been hitting the ball well in practice, so I know something big was coming. I wasn't worried about my technique or what was going on. Good to hit some balls in the crowd and just to get that big cheer and the most important thing is we finish with a win here," he said in a video posted on iplt20.com on Monday.
