Twenty20 (T20) tournaments have created a lot of entertainment across the globe; it is one of the most loved formats as the action in such format never halts. But every coin has two sides, along with entertainment, certain T20 franchise based leagues has also created a fuss and fiasco between certain players and the board which they represent.
Andre Russell has been a sensational all-rounder who is best suited for shorter formats. His prowess with the bat and ball is well-known and has been instrumental in whichever team he represented across the globe. Cricketers when off the field are busy with the media giving interviews and addressing the press conference, it’s a part of their life.
In a recent interview with a cricket website, Russell was quoted saying, “My household needs wouldn’t be fulfilled bust by playing in the West Indies team.”

There are times when the actual words don’t convey the exact meaning what a person has to say. It happened to be somewhat same with Russell as he instantly took it to his Twitter handle and tweeted:
I’m so disappointed with the media, I’m not doing no more interviews. They always put words in your mouth. #imdone pic.twitter.com/RRcxsqhHBC
