Australian batter Glenn Maxwell revealed that he plans to increase the security for his wedding in March after invitations for the same were leaked by certain ‘excited’ relatives.

Maxwell announced that he will be marrying his long-time girlfriend, Vini Raman, in a private ceremony. They printed out the invitation in Tamil which was posted by a relative and it ended up going viral. As a result, the security for the wedding will now have to be increased.
