4 Reasons Why RCB May Release Glenn Maxwell IPL 2025: Glenn Maxwell has been an important player for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the last few seasons. He has pulled the team out of difficult situations many times with his aggressive batting and brilliant bowling. But his performance in IPL 2024 has been quite disappointing. Now it seems that he may be dropped from Royal Challengers Bangalore before IPL 2025. Here are the reasons why RCB may release Maxwell in the upcoming IPL mega auction:
- Poor bowling performance
After failing in batting last season, Glenn Maxwell was expected to perform well in bowling as well. But he disappointed in bowling as well and could take only 6 wickets. His economy rate was more than 8, meaning he failed to stop the runs. - Poor performance in IPL 2024
Glenn Maxwell has always been the strength of the middle order of Royal Challengers Bangalore, but his bat remained silent last season. He scored only 52 runs in 10 matches which is the worst performance of his IPL career. His poor form has made it difficult for Royal Challengers to rely on him. - Lack of retention spots
Royal Challengers Bangalore has many important players like Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Will Jacks and Faf du Plessis who will have to be retained. In such a situation, it will be difficult for Glenn Maxwell to find a place in the team. Apart from this, spending a huge amount to buy Maxwell again will also not be beneficial for the team. - social media prompts
Glenn Maxwell has recently unfollowed Royal Challengers Bangalore on Instagram, which indicates that he may part ways with the team. Although this is not a concrete proof, it does point to the fact that Maxwell’s future with Bangalore is uncertain.
