We have missed @Russell12A haven’t we? Maybe unless you are bowler ?#CSKvsKKR #IPL2018

CSK are a batsman short…and KKR is getting closer to a total that’s defendable. Might become the first team to win after batting first in this IPL. #CSKvKKR

CSK fans are getting to see what they had expected. Someone returning to Chepauk, after serving a ban, is going bonkers #CSKvKKR

This guy is a beast @Russell12A. Just flexed his muscle. Cracker of a wicket. If dew comes into play it will be killer of a game! #CSKvsKKR #VIVOIPL

An absolute sizzler by Andre Russell.. perhaps the best no.7 batsman at present in limited-overs! A touch of Abdur Razzaq in the manner he clears his left leg & smashes away.. #CSKvsKKR
