"WE WERE DEFEATED BY A WEAK BATTING ORDER" KKR STAR ABOUT RAJASTHAN ROYALS AND COMPARISON WITH MUMBAI INDIANS!!!

The Kolkata Knight Riders are coming off 6 straight losses and the most recent one was against they Rajasthan Royals at Kolkata where they lost defending a total of 175.

Talking about the loss and the upcoming match against the Mumbai Indians, Andre Russell said that "We played Rajasthan Royals recently and we were defeated by a weak batting order. If you cannot restrict them under 170 with our bowling, against a strong team like Mumbai, we will need miracles. We have to count on our beliefs. I believe and everyone believes that if we want to win the next three games. Chances are that all may not go our way, but we have to win."

Russell has also been expressing his interest to bat higher up in the batting order and has said that speaking to the coach, they have decided to play him as a floater rather than strictly keeping him to the lower order. Hence if the situation arises, we can defenitely expect Russell to come in a lot earlier.
