Russell's most successful season was in 2019. He scored 510 runs in 14 innings at an average of 56.66 and a massive strike rate of 204.81. Four half-centuries came out of his bat in that season, with a best individual score of 80 not out. He also took 11 wickets that season, with an average of 26.09 and an economy rate of 9.51.
