In a conversation with Star Sports, Russell talked about his relationship with KKR. Russell said that KKR has done a lot for me in the last few years.

They send me for proper treatment on my knees. To be honest, this is something special for me. No other franchise or even my country really invests that much in me.

The all-rounder further said – I am happy here. I don’t see any other franchise being a part of this tournament as I am here for almost 9 years.

Being here for so many years, I meet these people, I come closer to them every year. Even when there is no cricket, I am in touch with Mr. Venky (Mysore).
