2. Andre Russell
Star all-rounder Andre Russell’s batting position was a subject of debate in the KKR camp throughout the season last year. He scored over 500 runs last year and could have scored more had he batted higher up the order.
KKR mentor David Hussey, however, has made it clear that the big-hitting West Indian will bat higher up the order this time around. Russel has been a vital cog in the KKR wheel for a few years now and it is important that KKR management gives him the freedom to express himself this season.
He scored 222 runs in the ongoing CPL season hitting 19 fours and 16 sixes in the process. His team Jamaica Tallahwas made an exit from the tournament after losing to Trinbago Knight Riders in the first semifinal.
