Tagged among flops of the previous IPL season in the UAE, Maxwell managed to score just 108 runs.
32-year-old Maxwell had managed to score just 103 runs from 13 games in the UAE, ending his abysmal IPL 2020 campaign without hitting a single six.
Maxwell had an abysmal stint in the UAE where he scored just 108 runs from 13 games for the Punjab-based outfit.
Exactly 2000 runs were scored in the span of a week and it's safe to say that the Aussie batsmen made Indian bowlers look hapless.
Maxwell himself opined over the legality of the shot after Australia's 2-1 series win against India on Wednesday, saying that the switch-hit is a part of the game's evolution.
A switch hit involves a batsman changing the order of his hands (from left-handed to right-handed grip or vice-versa) after the bowler starts his run-up.
Maxwell, who hit 59 off 38 balls, also felt that the run out of wicketkeeper Alex Carey (38) was a key moment of the game that his team lost by 13 runs
In the ongoing ODI series between India and Australia, Glenn Maxwell and David Warner have caught the Indian bowlers off guard a number of times by playing the switch-hit.
Smith's quick-fire 104-run knock propelled Australia to a mammoth 389 for four in the second ODI, which they defended easily to secure a decisive 2-0 lead in the ODI series.
While Glenn Maxwell scored a fiery 19-ball 45-run innings, James Neesham produced a match-winning performance (48* off 24 balls) for New Zealand against West Indies.
Wasim Jaffer poked fun at KL Rahul as his IPL teammate Glenn Maxwell produced a fiery 19-ball 45-run cameo against India in the 1st ODI.
In 13 innings, Maxwell scored just 108 runs, at an average of 15.42, with a strike-rate of just 101.88 for Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) who ultimately failed to make it to the playoffs.
Smith, along with Warner, was not part of the 2018-19 series against India when Virat Kohli's men won the Test and the ODI series Down Under.
Maxwell had a woeful stint in the recently-concluded IPL edition where he managed to score a meagre 103 runs from 13 matches
For Maxwell, KL Rahul is as good a back-up as any team can wish for.
‘Kings XI Punjab’s 10 crore cheerleader’ Glenn Maxwell and ‘homemade pipe gun’ Dale Steyn top Sehwag's notorious bill.
Seam-friendly pitches in UAE have forced captains to surprise batsmen, not just with spinners but also by bringing seam bowlers first-up.
Failing to live up to his hefty price tag of INR 10.75 crore, Maxwell has managed to amass just 102 runs so far in 12 games.
In the on-going season, the right-hander has managed to score 102 runs in 11 matches at an underwhelming average of 14.57.
In the case of names that grab headlines, their performance in the preceding series often hold little value.
