Batter venkatesh iyer

Batter Venkatesh Iyer: Batter Venkatesh Iyer lavished praise on Kolkata Knight Riders’ (KKR) Andre Russell, calling him as one of the finest T20 players in the world following his brilliant bowling performance against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the Chinnaswamy stadium on Friday night.

Russell picked up two wickets -- Cameron Green and Rajat Patidar -- in the game and bowled at the death for his side.

Speaking at the post-match press conference, Iyer said that had Russell batted on Friday, he would have scored some runs as well.
