Mother asked for two years:

Andre Russell’s father Michael worked in a factory. His mother Sandra Davis did not want his son to become a cricketer. But Russell asked his mother two years. He said, mother, just give me two years, if I could not do anything, whatever you say, I will do it.

First international match in 2010:

Andre Russell did not succeed according to his mother, but his family understood that he was working hard and one day he would surely be successful. Russell won the hearts of selectors by playing first class cricket for Jamaica in 2007. As a dangerous batsman and bowler, he made it to the West Indies team.
