Xtra Time Web Desk: In the upcoming match between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), KKR will look to continue their winning momentum after a thrilling victory against Hyderabad, largely driven by Andre Russell's powerhouse performance. Russell's remarkable innings of 64* off just 25 balls turned the game around for KKR, rescuing them from a precarious position and securing a crucial win against Pat Cummins' team.

KKR will once again rely on Russell's batting prowess as they face RCB at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. In a promotional video for the Indian Premier League (IPL), Russell expressed his preference for hitting sixes, particularly enjoying shots over long-on and straight down the ground.
