Glenn Maxwell Opens Up On The Experiences In RCB's Dressing Room, Feels Fortunate To Be With Two Greats Of The Game

Australian explosive batsman Glenn Maxwell who had a brilliant IPL stint with the RCB side has revealed how two greats of the game in Virat and AB influenced his very own game. Maxwell had one of his best IPL seasons if not the best in this 2021 season as he finished as the top scorer for the RCB franchise with 513 runs in 15 games.

He also finished fifth in the race for the orange cap and it has been a significant rise in his individual game. Having struggled to play the role of a finisher for various franchises in the last four to five years, he finally was assigned a different role of playing in the top order and he took it with both hands. He also kept contributing with the ball and he has always been an incredible fielder.

“Every day was a learning experience, every day I was finding something new out, I was being a sponge to Virat and AB, just watching the way they go about things.

“That’s been one thing in the IPL I’ve been extremely thankful of – the opportunities it gives you to learn off the best players in the world. I was extremely fortunate to have two of the greats in the game in the same team and in the same batting line-up who were open to share their experiences and talk to me about their game,” Maxwell told as reported by WA today
