Andre Russell 88* Runs off 36 Balls Innings Video: It's the match number 5 of VIVO IPL 2018 and we've seen some of the magical innings from the all rounder of Kolkata Knight Riders against the game of Chennai Super Kings on the CSK's home ground (Chepauk Stadium). Andre Russell smashes 88 not out runs in just 36 balls with the help of only 1 boundary (4s) and smashing 11 sixes (6s). One of six goes out of the stadium too. You can watch the Andre Russell 88 Runs off 36 balls complete innings on this post within some minutes or a while. We've already seen some magnificent innings from KL Rahul Fastest Fifty IPL 2018, Dwayne Bravo 68 Runs off 30 balls as well as Sunil Narine Innings in this IPL 11. Now, the showtime for Russell in this IPL 11 Season.
9.42pm Andre Russell's 11th six has taken Kolkata Knight Riders past the 200-run mark. From a position of 89 for 5 after ten overs, the visitors smacked 113 runs off the final ten to set CSK a target that won't be easy to chase down. Can Dhoni and his men chase this down? We'll find out in ten minutes when the second innings begins.
Here's the big man himself. Russell says: "Special knock for me. I've been doing some work with Jacques. All he told me to do is stay still, so 'just stay still, and you'll be more focused on the ball'. Bravo's my team-mate, a good friend, but I enjoyed the shot that went over the roof. I've learnt a lot since my one-year absence. I've learned how to build an innings. It's a good wicket - ok, not the best wicket, but we have some good discussions in the team meeting. We'll defend this if we stick to our plans."

[Watch Video] Andre Russell 88* Runs off 36 balls Innings IPL 2018 vs CSK
9.54pm A bunch of records broken or equalled tonight:
- 1) Russell's 11 sixes was the most (in all T20s) for a batsman who did not score a hundred.
- 2) KKR's effort of 17 sixes also equals the record for most sixes in a T20 match at the Chepauk
Here's the big man himself. Russell says: "Special knock for me. I've been doing some work with Jacques. All he told me to do is stay still, so 'just stay still, and you'll be more focused on the ball'. Bravo's my team-mate, a good friend, but I enjoyed the shot that went over the roof.
