IPL 2022 has started with a bang, and we have seen stellar performances in the tournament so far. There have been some close games that have thrilled the fans to their core.
The IPL 2022 league games will be played across four stadiums in Mumbai and Pune. Wankhede Stadium (Mumbai), Brabourne Stadium (Mumbai), DY Patil Stadium (Mumbai) and MCA Stadium (Pune) will host all the league games of IPL 2022.
Muscle Russell is famous for his six-hitting abilities, and he proved his class against Punjab Kings in the league game at Wankhede. Russel smashed 70 runs in just 31 balls at a strike rate of 225.81 to earn an easy win for the Kolkata Knight Riders. The arrival of the form of Andre Russel can be a huge scare for other teams in the tournament.
The red-soil pitches in Mumbai offer a lot of assistance to the batters, and we can expect some really high-scoring games throughout the tournament this season. There are some very short boundaries in the stadiums, and players like Russell can easily clear the fence.
