In your situation I'm absolutely taking Russell/Rabada. Because we don't have any confirmed doubles yet there's no compulsion to push your team in any particular direction, so you'd only be losing Bumrah for one round.
The last time we started the season with no doubles I had something like nine trades left at the end of the season because I used so few in the early rounds!
EDIT: ok I've just seen your teams, so the XvY is Russell, Rabada, Gill vs Jaiswal, Rashid, Omarzai. I guess having Rashid as a puzzle piece does mean it could become a longer term issue, but you do have a swathe of expensive players that can be used to get him back if it still feels necessary.
