I didn't want to fade out': Andre Russell on retiring from IPL


It was a surprise when Kolkata Knight Riders released Andre Russell. It was an even bigger surprise when Russell hung up his boots and joined the franchise's coaching staff as power coach, stating that he did not want to be seen in any other jersey.
To be honest, when I heard that name coming from Mr Venky (Mysore, the CEO), I said, hmm, that describes Dre Russ perfectly, that describes Andre Russell... because when it comes to what I've been doing on the field - the power that I possess when I bat, the energy that I show in the field with the ball in hand - I thought, yeah, this name sounds good: POWER COACH.
