Hmmm. Makes sense...doesn't he have a nickname/petname likes the other cricketeres, i.e., Anamul is Bijoy, etc.
Yes, it's a Bangladeshi thing to name their kids with 3 names instead of the usual 2, probably due to past conquests.

Pet name is usually in English, Russell is a pretty common name within BD lol. So it usually work like this:

First Name = Bengali
Last Name = Arabic
Nickname = English(this is the most common name your family and friends will know you by).
