Australian star all-rounder Glenn Maxwell was bought by Indian Premier League (IPl) franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) for Rs 14.25 in IPL auction 2021. In 2020, Maxwell played for Kings XI Punjab but he failed to live upto his reputation. Meanwhile, Maxwell's Aussie teammate Aaron Finch and England players Jason Roy and Alex Hales have gone unsold.
Maxwell entered into the fray with a base price of Rs 2 crore and the bidding war started between RCB and Chennai Super Kings. After an intense bidding, RCB finally managed to grab Maxwell, who will now play alongside India skipper Virat Kohli.
The hard-hitting all-rounder was surely a disappointment during the 2020 edition as he did not even smash one SIX in the whole tournament. The Australian cricketer has been quite lucky, however, as far as his presence in the IPL is concerned. The batsman has always been one of the most talked-about players and has played for Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) between 2014 and 2017.
In 2018, he was bought by Delhi Capitals (DC) for a huge sum, but he failed to deliver. He then skipped the 2019 season but then when he came back in 2020, it turned out to be a much worse season.
He was again picked up KXIP for 10.75 crore INR and interestingly, the other team who kept betting on Maxwell were the Capitals.
In 2020, Maxwell scored 108 runs from 13 matches which did not help KXIP to enter the top 4. However, he soon regained his batting form when he was back in an Australian squad against India.
Maxwell will be in high demand this season as well and Kings XI Punjab may plan to buy him back but at a cheaper price.
