Records that Andre Russell can achieve in IPL 2025 – UC Cricket
KKR didn’t kick off their IPL 2025 journey the way they had hoped, and Andre Russell didn’t quite find his footing either. But that’s the beauty of the IPL – it’s full of surprises, and once a player finds their groove, things can change quickly. Andre Russell, who hails from the Caribbean, is one of KKR’s key players and is about to make some history this season. Let’s take a look at what records he’s close to breaking.
First up, he’s only five runs away from hitting 2,500 runs for KKR across both IPL and CLT20. If he gets there, he’ll become the third player in the franchise’s history to achieve this. The other two are legends Gautam Gambhir and Robin Uthappa, with 3,345 and 2,649 runs, respectively. It’s pretty impressive to think about Russell’s consistency over the years since he joined KKR back in 2014.
Now, if we zoom in specifically on the IPL, he needs 70 runs to hit that same 2,500-run mark for KKR. Currently, he has 2,430 runs from 102 innings, making him the third-highest scorer for KKR in the IPL, just behind Gambhir and Uthappa. If he plays well against Rajasthan Royals in the upcoming games, he might just pass Uthappa’s score within the first couple of weeks.
On a broader scale, Russell is just 12 runs shy of reaching 2,500 career IPL runs altogether. With 2,488 runs to date and an impressive strike rate of 174.84, he’s on the brink of joining the exclusive club of players who have hit the 2,500 mark. If he reaches this milestone, he’ll be the third West Indian to do so, following in the footsteps of the great Chris Gayle and Kieron Pollard.
Lastly, let’s not forget about his boundary-hitting skills. While he’s known for his record-breaking 206 sixes in the IPL, his ability to hit fours often gets overshadowed. He only needs six more fours to reach 600 boundaries in T20 cricket, which is quite the achievement. Out of his 9,000+ runs in T20s, almost 600 have come from fours, alongside his impressive tally of over 730 sixes. It’s safe to say that every time he steps up to bat, there’s a chance he could make history!
