Why should I retire: Andre Russell Speaking to Jamaica Gleaner, Russell said, “I spoke to Sammy and he told me that he wants me to play international cricket for a few more years.

I could have retired from international cricket, but I want to see how the young all-rounders perform. I can still hit the ball anywhere, bowl at a good pace, am still fit and can run in the field. I don’t think I should stop now.” Andre Russell’s current status Currently, Andre Russell is playing for Trinbago Knight Riders in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL).
