The KKR seamer delivered the ball after almost pulling out of his run-up which completely bamboozled the Royals skipper.

The Aussie protested with umpire Nigel Llong but he couldn't see what Russell was upto as the bowler was behind him. After some confusion, the ball was counted as a legitimate one.
