Amidst the ongoing IPL 2024 match between Mumbai Indians and RCB at the Wankhede Stadium, Glenn Maxwell faced another setback, triggering a wave of criticism from fans on Twitter.
Glenn Maxwell, the Australian all-rounder, is currently grappling with a rough patch in IPL 2024. Struggling to hit his stride, Maxwell has been consistently delivering subpar performances, hampering Royal Challengers Bangalore’s ability to accelerate the run rate during crucial middle overs.
Hopes were high for Maxwell to play a pivotal role in the match against Mumbai Indians. However, those hopes were dashed as he once again failed to deliver, extending his streak of disappointments. Falling for a low score yet again, Maxwell’s struggles persisted, exacerbating the pressure on his team at the Wankhede Stadium.
His woes continued when he was dismissed by Shreyas Gopal, who outsmarted him with a deceptive delivery that Glenn Maxwell failed to read.
Attempting a flick shot on the on-side, Maxwell missed the ball entirely, leading to his dismissal as the ball crashed into his pads in front of the off stump. Umpire Nitin Menon promptly raised his finger, signaling Maxwell’s departure from the crease.
