Michael Vaughan feels Glenn Maxwell will be in huge demand in next IPL
Having struggled to make an impact with the bat in the Indian Premier League in UAE, the dashing batsman looked a different player in his home conditions.
Hyderabad: Glenn Maxwell has been at his top form in the ODI series against India that Australia won 2-1. Having struggled to make an impact with the bat in the Indian Premier League in UAE recently playing for Kings XI Punjab, the dashing batsman looked a different player in his home conditions.
This performance will earn him a lot of demand in the next year’s IPL, reckons former England cricketer Michael Vaughan. Maxwell scored 167 runs at a strike rate of 194. “I don’t think there is any white-ball team in the world that wouldn’t want Maxwell. I’m pretty sure next time in the IPL auction, most of the teams will look for Maxwell. Look what Australia have done, they have found the right place for him – at no. 7, and I don’t think they’ll move him too much unless obviously, they get off to the fliers,” Vaughan said in the show with Cricbuzz.
“I think his fielding is pretty much guaranteed that he is going to probably save 5 to 10 runs in the field. So, he is already in my eyes when he goes out to bat, on 10. I mention that most of the batsmen start on nought, Maxwell starts on 10 because he is that good in the field,” he added.
