KKR didn't have a dream start to their IPL 2025 campaign and neither did Andre Russell get the start that he looked for. However, IPL is a game of uncertainty and anyone can turn the tables once he gets his rhythm.

Andre Russell, the Caribbean giants is also one of the most valuable assets for the purple and gold team and is on the verge of breaking some records this IPL. Let's dive into the list of records.

1. 5 Runs To Complete 2500 Runs For KKR (IPL + CLT20)

Russell needs just five runs to become the third player to score 2,500 runs for KKR in IPL as well as CLT20, joining franchise legends Gautam Gambhir (3,345 runs) and Robin Uthappa (2,649 runs). This milestone underscores Russell's decade-long consistency since joining KKR in 2014.

2. 70 Runs To Complete 2500 IPL Runs For KKR

In IPL-specific terms, Russell requires 70 runs to reach 2,500 runs for the Knight Riders. Currently at 2,430 runs from 102 IPL innings, he's already KKR's third-highest IPL scorer behind Gambhir (3,035) and Uthappa (2,439). A strong start against RR in IPL 2025 could see him surpass Uthappa's tally within the tournament's second week.

3. 12 Runs Away From 2500 Career IPL Runs

The explosive all-rounder is also 12 runs away from entering the elite 2,500-run IPL club overall. Having amassed 2,488 runs at a career strike rate of 174.84, Russell would become the third West Indian after Chris Gayle and Kieron Pollard to achieve this feat.

4. 6 Fours For 600 T20 Boundaries

While renowned for his 206 IPL sixes (KKR record), Russell's four-hitting prowess often goes unnoticed. He needs six boundaries to complete 600 fours in T20 cricket, a testament to his all-round strokeplay. Of his 9,000+ T20 runs, 594 have come through fours, complementing his 730+ sixes.
