- Was this player’s IPL career over?
Brian Lara said in a special conversation with Star Sports, ‘Glenn Maxwell was in very bad form in the year 2019 and 2020. It seemed that his IPL career would be over. I want to name one man and that is Virat Kohli. Can you imagine that Virat Kohli’s call for Glenn Maxwell to come and join the RCB team and I am sure that alone would have boosted his enthusiasm and confidence.

Harshal Patel has been taking wickets continuously for the team and Chahal has also done well for the team by going to UAE. Maxwell is also consistently scoring runs for the team and the pair of captain Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal are adept at giving the team a good start.

Sometimes he is not able to play according to the circumstances.
