As a youth he toured [[New Zealand]] with England Young Cricketers in the 1990–91 season, playing two test matches and two one day internationals. He also played two youth ODIs against [[Australia]] the following summer, opening the batting with future county colleague [[Mal Loye]].

He made his first team debut for his home-county [[Northamptonshire County Cricket Club|Northamptonshire]] in 1992, and played for the county in 109 first-class matches over ten seasons. During this time he made ten centuries, with a highest score of 201 not out, but only reached the landmark of 1000 runs in a season once; in 2001.

Russell left Northamptonshire at the end of the 2002 season to join Nottinghamshire whom he represented from 2003-2006. Despite scoring five first-class centuries in this period, he was released at the end of the 2006 season.<ref>[http://www.espncricinfo.com/england/content/story/258605.html Notts release three players] Cricinfo</ref>
