3. Andre Russell

When Andre Russell takes a strike in a T20 match it is one of the scariest sights for any opposition time. The big man from Jamaica, a colossal T20 player that has entertained everyone in his IPL career. Kolkata Knight Riders like every other year will again bank on their superstar all-rounder to deliver the goods yet again.

The defending champion of IPL ‘MVP’ award, Russell just knows how to take his team home during a tense T20 match. He is one of those players that you just can’t keep out of the game. Time and time again he has produced breathtaking performances for the Kolkata Knight Riders.
