Andre Russell withdraws from Windies squad after medical procedure during PSL

[Saj]

From Cricket West Indies:

CWI Medical Panel outlined that Andre Russell has been withdrawn from the squad, due to an adverse reaction he had to a medical procedure done in Dubai before he flew to the Caribbean.

Gosh. He has piled in a lot of weight.

A quality player and WI would be hoping he is fit in time for WC

 

[Gabbar Singh]

No doubt he will be fully fit and raring to go when it comes to the IPL.

 

[Sherlock]

Hope he's okay. Wonder what he had done...

 

[shaaik]

Unfortunate for a guy of his talent to be sitting out most of the year due to injuries.

 

[Rana]

Will be fully fit and eager to go when IPL starts Im sure

 

[Hasan123]

Shouldn't have played in the PSL if he wants to represent West Indies. Seems as though playing has made his injury worse.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Looks like he's recovered in time for the IPL - now there's a shock.

Some of these players have amazing powers of recovery for some tournaments.

De Villiers, Russell to name but 2 players.

 

[ElRaja]

from a purely fiscal pov makes sense to rest if u have any fitness doubts before your annual pay day. would be preferable if players were open about this so the tournaments dont bother marketing with players who have no intention of playing.

And now Sunil Narine.

 

[The Viper]

I don’t know if he regressed but he looked awful in the PSL. Wonder if he purposely took things easy.

 

[Hasan123]

Him playing in T20 leagues is such a waste. If developed and managed correctly he could have been a brilliant test cricketer.

Quality of cricket, brand name, commercial stints, after parties and money - all these make IPL the most lucrative cricket tournament in the world. This is only the beggining and in future more cricketers will choose to play IPL over country.

IPL parties are super lame. He is from the caribbean, I'm sure partying is not one of the reason.

PCB needs to find another window after the IPL.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Russell has recovered well.

 

[Mp812]

Russell has recovered well.

Yup in IPL recovery is good...match winning innings of 40 odd runs in 20 balls in 2 games

 

[Mp812]

Sunil Narine provided the fast start, and Andre Russell - who else! - gave the Kolkata Knight Riders innings a furious finish, whomping five sixes and three fours in a 17-ball 48.

 

[Saj]

Just watched him bowling in the IPL. What on earth has happened to him, is he injured again or just bowling 70mph filth these days?

He picked up an injury in the game. Should never have come back on after the injury.
