Star Australian cricketer Maxwell said that Australia will do a heavy sub-continent tour next year and with players going in and out he might get an opportunity in the Australia Test playing XI so he will have to be ready for that.

“Next year is obviously a heavy sub-continent tour year. There could be opportunities with guys coming in and out. There is a lot of cricket next year, you don’t want to burn guys out through the season so there could be a host of changes. So, I have to make sure I am playing well when they pick those squads in any format,” he asserted.
