New Delhi: Australia’s stormy all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has announced his retirement from the international ODI format. His ODI career spanned 13 years, with his debut coming in 2012. Glenn Maxwell gave a new direction to Australia in One-Day International (ODI) cricket. He has scored 3990 runs in 149 ODI matches.
Retiring before the 2027 ODI World Cup is being viewed as a significant setback for Kangaroo fans and players. However, he will continue to play first-class cricket, in addition to the T20 format. Before him, David Warner also retired from ODIs. He has announced his retirement himself. You can know what he said in the article below.
Glenn Maxwell said a big thing.
Announcing his retirement, Glenn Maxwell has made a surprising statement. He said that the physical demands of the 50-over game had become too high. I told George Bailey that I don’t think I will be able to play till 2027. Maxwell said that now is the time to prepare others to take his place. He further said that I think it is time to give people a chance in my place.
Maxwell had decided to retire from ODIs even before his finger injury in the IPL. Before him, Marcus Stoinis and Steve Smith have also retired from ODIs. He further said that the physical demands of the 50-over game were very high. He said, ‘My decision to retire from ODI cricket came after the first few matches of the Champions Trophy.’
