"Don't Need A Fan Like You": Glenn Maxwell Reveals His Ugly Ego Clash With Virender Sehwag In IPL Team

Glenn Maxwell, the explosive Australian all-rounder, had a rollercoaster journey in the Indian Premier League (IPL), experiencing the highs of a player-of-the-tournament season with Punjab Kings (then Kings XI Punjab) and the lows of intense behind-the-scenes conflicts. In his book The Showman, Maxwell recounts his IPL journey and sheds light on the complex relationship he shared with former teammate and mentor Virender Sehwag. Maxwell's story begins with a high point in 2014 when he joined Kings XI Punjab. The team topped the table, losing only three games and securing a place in the final after a dominant season, with Maxwell at his best, scoring 552 runs and hitting more sixes than any other player. However, a defeat to Kolkata Knight Riders in the final dashed Punjab's hopes for a title. Reflecting on this near-perfect season, Maxwell recalls, "We went down in the final over. As close to the perfect season as you get in the IPL, but no trophy."

The countdown has begun for the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchises to start working on their release and retention list. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced the retention rules on Saturday, paving the way for the franchises to finalise the list of players they wish to keep ahead of the mega auction.

"Best Bowler Across All Three Formats": Glenn Maxwell's Huge Praise For India Star

All-rounder Glenn Maxwell feels that Australia's success in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy is directly linked with how their batters negate the ace Indian spin duo of Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. India are eyeing their third successive series triumph in the Antipodean nation after etching epochal victories during the 2018-19 and 2020-21 tours. In fact, India remain the only Asian nation to beat the Australia at their home in a Test series. Maxwell said Ashwin and Jadeja have often dictated the course of the game. "I think that over a long period of time, having played against guys like Ashwin and Jadeja, those two seem to have always been the ones we've faced consistently, and the battles we've had with them have often dictated the outcome of the game," Maxwell told Star Sports.
