Andre Russell said on Star Sports' show Cricket Live, 'Honestly, I am very happy for Sunil. Reaching close to 500 runs in a tournament is no joke. He is the main bowler of the team. Due to this, he bowls four overs this season and has taken 16 wickets. This shows that he is a great all-rounder.
Andre Russell had requested him to return for the World Cup to be held in America and West Indies. He said, 'I think he should think about a comeback. Two weeks before the team selection, I was trying to understand his mind. (Scherfen) Rutherford and I tried to talk to him and said can you take back your retirement just for this World Cup. But no positive response was received.
