MI vs KKR: Andre Russell to Miss the Match; David Wiese to Play for KKR

Andre Russell is injured

Andre Russell suffered a leg injury while bowling in the previous match. He was taken off the field in the middle of his third over of the match. Russell did come out to bat for KKR as they were in a desperate situation but could not get the job done and departed very quickly. It is very likely that Andre Russell will miss today’s match against the Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium.

Because the IPL is a big tournament, KKR management may not want to risk playing Russell against MI. The all-rounder is an important member of the squad, capable of turning the game with bat and ball on his own. KKR will like to have Russell fit before the end of the IPL 2023 season. While the absence of the Caribbean star versus MI would be a setback, KKR has strong alternative options in David Wiese, Jason Roy, Tim Southee, and Litton Das.
