Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has announced that he will not participate in the upcoming 19th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) auction, marking a significant decision in his cricketing career. The 37-year-old expressed gratitude for the opportunities and memories he gained through the IPL, where he represented four franchises — Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Delhi Daredevils, and Punjab Kings. Maxwell stated that the league helped shape him both as a player and as a person. His decision follows similar moves by former South African captain Faf du Plessis and England’s Moeen Ali, who have opted to play in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) instead of the IPL. Both players expressed excitement about joining the PSL, describing it as a competitive platform featuring world-class talent and a chance for new experiences and growth in T20 cricket.
