IPL 2021, RCB vs KKR: Andre Russell’s big warning to RCB- Ahead of the Eliminator against Royal Challengers (RCB), Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) all-rounder Andre Russell has sent a big warning to Virat Kohli & Co. Fit again from an injury, he is ready to hammer the RCB bowlers for a six that they need a new ball.
In a video posted by KKR on Instagram, Rusell was interacting with teammates Venkatesh Iyer and Shakib Al Hassan. “I would do like 20 to 30 pushups every day, just to keep up my body strength going, because hitting those sixes, 100 metres or more, I might do it for a couple of times a year, but hitting those sixes consistently, it takes consistent work,” the West Indies all-rounder said.
“Now the tournament starts” ⚔️

IPL 2021: KKR’s Andre Russell sends BIG warning to Kohli’s RCB, says ‘Want to hit the ball so hard that they end up getting a new one’
IPL 2021: “At the point of contact, most of the time I try to make sure that everything goes to the ball. Some guys, they look to time the ball. They keep their shape, and they want the ball to go over the ropes. I want to hit the ball so hard that they end up getting a new ball,” Andre Russell added.
Russell also said that his strategy of hitting sixes in an above-mentioned manner ends up putting extreme pressure on the bowling side.
“I learned a lot of Chris Gayle. He said that I am afraid of getting out on the boundary, so I rather hit the ball over the boundary, like far back, make sure it’s a six,” said Russell.
