The IPL will resume on September 19 in the UAE after being suspended in May due to the second wave of COVID-19 in India, which led to multiple cases inside its bio-bubble.

In his first season with the Virat Kohli-led side, Maxwell has scored 223 runs in seven matches at an average of 37.16 and strike rate of 144.80, including two half-centuries.

Australian cricketer Glenn Maxwell has said that despite his team's lacklustre T20 International showing in a couple of recent series, the side is 'very good' and looking forward to the T20 World Cup.

The Hundred will run from July 21 to August 21 and was expected to attract a number of stars from across the world.

The 40-year-old Pietersen, who works as a commentator now wrote that Maxwell must be feeling very comfortable in the RCB set-up.

Maxwell, who completed his worst IPL season ever, in the UAE, scoring 108 runs in 106 balls in the 2020 season without a single six, has already amassed 176 runs in three innings with two half-centuries. 

Glenn Maxwell and AB de Villiers's whirlwind half centuries propelled RCB to 204/4 and KKR scored 166/8 in reply.

Maxwell, who aggregated just 108 in 13 matches at an average of just over 15 in IPL 2020, was picked by the Bangalore-based outfit in the mini-auction earlier this year.

Maxwell, who was snapped by RCB for Rs 14.25 crore after a massive bidding war with CSK, already has justified the faith shown in him by playing two match-winning knocks in their back-to-back wins this season.

Sanjay Manjrekar named the two players who can shed the 'inconsistent' tag in the 2021 IPL season.

Maxwell's 59 off 41 balls helped RCB make 149 for eight which proved six runs too many for SRH. It was the Australian's first half-century following none in his previous three IPL seasons.

Maxwell's 59 helped RCB recover from Rashid Khan's brilliant 2 for 18 that reduced the team to 109 for six in the 17th over. 

Despite his worst ever IPL season last year in the UAE where he scored 108 runs in 106 balls for Kings XI Punjab, Maxwell was roped in by RCB for a whopping INR14.25 crore in the auction earlier this year in Chennai.

After being released by Punjab Kings, Maxwell was roped in for INR 14.25 crore by RCB in the Chennai auction last February in a bid to boost their middle-order scoring. 

Glenn Maxwell made an impressive start to the 2021 IPL campaign with RCB, scoring 39 off 28 deliveries in the 160-run chase.

Harshal produced a death over masterclass with a five-wicket haul and restricted MI to 159/9 at Chepauk.

Glenn Maxwell is expected to feature in RCB's opening match of the season against Mumbai Indians on Friday.

Maxwell added that he wants to bring energy to the team.

Maxwell managed only 108 runs in 13 matches for Punjab Kings last season. He, however, is excited to share the stage this year with players like Kohli and AB de Villiers.

Maxwell, who had his share of problems with mental fatigue in the past, admitted that adjusting to such a life amid the COVID-19 pandemic is definitely taking a toll on players around the world.
