Glenn Maxwell announces retirement from ODI cricket

There's a reason why very few players look forward to extend their careers by cutting down on T20 cricket.
 
Farewell on a successful ODI career. Two ODI world cups. GOAT World Cup knock.
 
Match-winning Australian allrounder Glenn Maxwell has retired from one-day international cricket to focus on Australia’s campaign to win the T20 World Cup next year.

Maxwell has made the decision to prioritise his preparation for the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka, the Big Bash League and his other global commitments.

The explosive batter and often underestimated off-spin bowler played 149 ODI matches for Australia including what is regarded by many the greatest one-day innings of all-time.

Maxwell came in against Afghanistan at the 2023 World Cup with his side reeling at 7-91. In a high-pressure situation and battling severe cramp in searing heat, Maxwell took control.

His 202-run partnership with Pat Cummins, who made 12, got Australia to the 293-run target. Maxwell made 201 from just 128 balls.

Australia went on to win the World Cup, beating favourites India in Ahmedabad.

Maxwell’s strike rate of 126 is the second highest in ODI cricket, behind only the West Indian heavy hitter Andre Russell, including four hundreds and 23 half centuries along with 77 wickets.

Aside from his feats in Mumbai, Maxwell has played many incredible games across his decorated one-day career which included two ODI World Cup wins.

Maxwell says of his ODI career: “I think back to right at the start I was picked ahead of my time and out of the blue. I was just proud just to be playing a couple of games for Australia. I thought I was just going to have that.

“Since then, I have been able to go through the up and downs of being dropped, being brought back, playing in a few World Cups and being a part of some great teams.”

Maxwell said the physical toll of ODI cricket, on the back of a potentially career ending leg injury, was beginning to affect his ability to field at his best, which he sensed at the Champion’s Trophy, with another two years until the next ICC ODI World Cup.

“I felt like I was letting the team down a little bit with how body was reacting to the conditions. I had a good chat with (Chair of Selectors) George Bailey and I asked him what his thoughts were going forward,” he told the Final Word Podcast.

“We talked about the 2027 World Cup and I said to him ‘I don’t think I am going to make that, it’s time to start planning for people in my position to have a crack at it and make the position their own’. Hopefully they get enough of a lead-in to hang onto that role.

“I always said I wasn’t going to hand my position over if I felt like I was still good enough to play. I didn’t want to just hold on for a couple of series and almost play for selfish reasons.

“They are moving in such a clear direction so this give them the best look at what the line-up is leading into that next World Cup. I know how important that planning is.”

Todd Greenberg, CA Chief Executive said: “Congratulations to Glenn on what has been one of the most exciting and influential one day international careers in the format’s history.

“Glenn’s ballistic batting has lit up the cricket world and been one of the cornerstones of Australia’s continued success in the 50 over game, including his heroic role in the 2023 World Cup triumph.

“As with other greats of the game, crowds have flocked to grounds just to watch Glenn bat and children have been inspired to pick up a bat after seeing him put opposition attacks to the sword with a breathtaking array of shots.

“Australian Cricket is indebted to Glenn for his ODI exploits and excited that he will now focus on our quest to win the ICC T20 World Cup next year.”

Chair of men’s selectors George Bailey said: “Glenn will be known as one of the one-day game’s most dynamic players, who had key roles in two ODI World Cup victories.

“His level of natural talent and skill is remarkable. His energy in the field, under-rated ability with the ball and longevity has been superb. What else stands out is his passion for and commitment to playing for Australia.

“Fortunately, he still has much to offer Australia in the T20 format. All things going well he will be pivotal in the next 12 months as we build toward the World Cup early next year.”
 
An amazing allrounder, a very very underrated player who did not receive the clout he should have recieved.

A part of me believes Salman Ali Agha is trying to emulate Maxwell and reach his heights. Hes clearly modeled his body and facial hair after Maxwell.

As an allrounder Maxwell is far above the likes of Pandya, Malik, Hafeez, Agha, Shakib ul hasan, Ben Stokes, Marco Jansen and many others.

Although obviously the likes of Imran Khan, Kapil Dev etc etc are > him.

@Devadwal Please say something stupid. PP has not yet ceized laughing towards you.

We honestly need to name an award after you
 
Two World Cups and played arguably the greatest ODI innings of all-time. That's quite a career. Many great players didn't manage half as much despite having much longer careers.

End of an era for Australia in ODI cricket with the retirements of David Warner, Steve Smith, and now Glenn Maxwell. Only the pace trio still remains.

Pandya is way better player than Maxwell and so is stokes.

Starc has already said he is unlikely to make it to 2027. Missed CT too. He is effectively retired from the format.
 
Pandya is way better player than Maxwell and so is stokes.
And yet Maxwell avg higher in odi, has a better sr in odi that too across 2 eras, has 4 odi centuries including a double century in a world cup from an almost impossible situation while Pandya has a grand total of 0 deapite both batting at the same no.

Better numbers in t20 as well.

Only an indian can use some nonsense semantic such as but but but, Pandya isnt measured by numbers or some other sort of nonsense.

Pandya is only a better bowler then Maxwell which I'll agree on but Maxwell has achieved far more, infact hes contributed towards 2 world cup wins especially 2023 where aus was a goner if Maxwell didn't intervene.

Pandya has done zilch beyond that comical run out in 2017CT. His greatest achievement is winning a ct for his country on rigged pitches where india played all their games in a single pitch and tailored their squad to be spin heavy while other sides had to travel, fly, accilimitse and adjust their squad for double pitches.

As for stokes, no comment. Despite my disagreements with Mamoon, he is 100% right about stokes.
 
He has played one of the best batting innings in ODI cricket but his death bowling performance still makes me facepalm.

We had two runs to win and two wickets in hand V Aus. They had pretty much given up and Maxwell was bowling the last over. He conceded one run and took two wickets :zulfiqarb
 
A good lower middle order player, who played an unforgettable innings.

One of the most loved Aussie cricketer in India.
 
Not an allrounder though, he has taken 70 wickets in 150 matches, a part time bowler who had a golden arm.
 
That Afghanistan innings will be remembered for a long time.

Superhuman stuff that day.

The guy's talent level was and is through the roof pulling off stuff most batsmen can't dream of doing. But in that sense, he's also left a bit on the table over the years compared to his true potential.

That over made people laugh off their seats
Its got to be the most funniest dramatic finish to a match AFTER Bangladesh losing an ICC quarter final to us in 2016 needed 2 from 3 deliveries and losing 3 in a row
 
Highly Brilliant, Inconsistent stock of extremes.mostly made a fool out of himself and few times opposition too.
 
Starc has already said he is unlikely to make it to 2027. Missed CT too. He is effectively retired from the format.
After The next Ashes, Starc and Hazelwood likely to retire from test cricket. Starc from ODI cricket too but not sure about Hazelwood .

Same for Test specialists like of Smith , Lyon , Khawaja - all will retire after the Ashes .

:kp
 
In an era full of stat chasers, he was one of the very few batsmen who didn't care about his average, he just wanted to deliver pure violence to the opposition bowlers and entertain the fans.
 
Could look comically incompetent one match and then look a million dollars the next.

The Australian Shahid Afridi
 
Perfect time to step away from ODI cricket at 36 as a World Cup winner. He would have been 38 in the next World Cup and might have had a poor outing.

Australia have plenty of time to replace him.
 
Much better then afridi as a batsmen, Afridi was a better bowler though
Yeah. Wasn't an exact comparison. Maxwell was the better hitter and overall better ODI cricketer as well.

Right time to go. Will be 39 by 2027 World Cup

Not sure how Australia are going to do without Warner, Smith, Maxwell, Starc etc .

Very difficult to replace these players.
 
Starc has already said he is unlikely to make it to 2027. Missed CT too. He is effectively retired from the format.
Pretty anti-climatic retirement for someone who will probably go down as one of the greatest ODI bowlers of all-time. But I guess that's the point. He feels he has achieved everything there is to achieve in this format.

Good thing i am no longer in Aus. Have gotten my passport, have worked their, and dad called for retirement from AnZ so we are returning very soon.

Global mobility achieved now time to go back to my people.

I am now a free agent of chaos on PP, and will support whichever side that replicates the swagger of Travis Head 😎

Yeah. They have great T20 prospects and I have no doubt , they will be a threat there. Not sure about their ODI cricket.
 
ODI cricket is just being limited to World cups. Few teams plays bilaterals just before WC or CT otherwise hardly any. It is not a relevant format for people

Maxwell bowling isnt near hardiks level.
A 50 avg guy is a pure allrounder?
Hardik is finest player and athlete and if i could pick ome player from india rn it ll be hardik. He is clutch. He played his part in t20 wc.
Maxwell is a pure hitter who can bowl sometimes.

As for stokes yes he is over rated and yes he has had his moments but he has won eng a wc too and that is what singlehandedly means. He should ve retired but he was more complete batsman in his prime.

None of that matters.

Maxwell as a player has achieved more then Pandya and stokes. That is a fact, now pandya is still an active player and can he surpass maxwell? 100% he can but he is not their yet in terms of achievements.

He is a better bowler but a weaker batsmen.

Just because India is attached to a player doesnt mean I will blindly support. Keep that nonsense to yourself.

A guy who wasnt good enough for test cricket has achieved more than a player who.played more than hundred tests yes sure.

Stokes has achieved alot more as player alone. Not as team but as player.
Maxwell has few good innings but he wasnt good enough for tests and australia would ve good without him but same cant be said about england.

Since you did not address pandya, im assuming you've given up on it for now.

Now to address Ben Stokes. Stokes is only better in odi. In t20 their is a night and day difference between these 2.

As for test cricket, Stokes isnt a good test cricketer. Hes a 35 avg medicore test cricketer and a rubbish test bowler. Him playing 100+ tests and captaining the side has more to do with England's incompetence then a reflection of Maxwell's capabilities.

Maxwell has a far far better FC record then Stokes avg close to 40 and a sr of 74.

Problem is that for most of his career a batting lineup of

1) Khawaja
2) Warner
3) Labu/ Bankcroft
4) Steve Smith
5) Travis Head
6) Shaun marsh/Mitch Marsh(Eventualy replaced by webster)
7) Alex Carey

Maxwell had no place in the side. He couldn't relaxe bancroft in 2017 since he wasnt a top order batter/opener.

The middle order was always jam packed with the likes of smith, Travis, haddin, Micheal Clarke and many many others that played test cricket during the time maxwell was active.

They were better players then him. Meanwhile England didn't have that luxury. Before root came along and before many others like Ben duckett and a few others, England just wasnt a great Test side.

Even now their not that great and rely on flat track bullying. Harry Brooks isnt a great Test batter by any metric lol, just a solid ftb and bazzballer.

Stokes would never make it into the aussie test team during the time maxwell remained active.

If wasn't for injuries pandya would be regular in tests for all sena matches.
But pandya is an active player so you ll see he ll end up with better career than maxwel for sure he is one of the toughest guys out there.

As for stokes when he was in his peak he d make every test team on merit.
Dont tell me mitch marsh was good enough for 50 odd tests and stokes wouldnt play.
The fact is marsh avg less than 30 and still played more than maxwell
 
Leave individual brilliance aside stokes avg as good as rahane with bat and as good as zaheer khan with bowl. How can u say he isnt a good cricketer and maxwell would surpass him but he couldnt because he wasnt able to make it to squad where lesser players played??
Dumb

Maxwell was good but not that great as you guys are making out just because he is Australian and this mindset is very persistent here in desis

Heck even shaun marsh as pure batter avg less than stokes what are u high on man

Stokes would make every test team during his peak. Not now ofc as he is nearing an end
 
Good thing i am no longer in Aus. Have gotten my passport, have worked their, and dad called for retirement from AnZ so we are returning very soon.

Are you coming back to pak bro?
 
Stokes is better cricketer had a prolific career many would dream to have.
Hardik is on par with maxwell but he ll edge him out too.
Maxwell to me is a batsman who could bowl a few overs thats it.
A very good bat but he wasnt even the best bat in his team.
 
If wasn't for injuries pandya would be regular in tests for all sena matches.

I dont care about would have could have's. Youre original point was pandya > maxwell. Not future pandya > maxwell. Again your issue and your concession.

As for stokes when he was in his peak he d make every test team on merit.

Joke of the century, wouldnt ever been a front runner for classic aus. 35 avg test batter makes it into any side 🤣🤣

Stokes is underrated on PP.

@Mamoon is quite influential. He doesn't rate him ( wrongly I believe) but his stance influences many other posters to not rate him.

Test performances, in Ashes a match winning knock in an ODI final and a match winning knock in T20 final, these are things that many batsmen can only dream of.
 
Stokes is better cricketer had a prolific career many would dream to have.
Hardik is on par with maxwell but he ll edge him out too.
Maxwell to me is a batsman who could bowl a few overs thats it.
A very good bat but he wasnt even the best bat in his team.
Yes on par means a lower avg, lower sr, zero centuries and only one title win on a tailor made indian pitch where they never had to travel.

Congratulations @Devadwal I've finally found an indian poster weaker then you. You're now ranked no 2 worst 🤣

Yet it was you who said maxwell couldn't make the team because shaun and Mitch marsh were preferred and both are inferior to stokes so how exactly he wouldnt make it to that team?? Care to explain.

Yes for me pandya is better cricketer even now but people think the gap isnt there but it ll be evident by the time he retires.

Hogwash!
Stokes is a better batsman than Shaun Marsh and Mitchell Marsh, secondly a veteran who has played 100 test matches and is hailed as one of the best allrounder in tests will now be compared with someone who played a dozen of tests and failed terribly in them just on whims and fantasies.

Stokes is thrice the player Maxwell could ever be in tests.

The fact that you think you understand cricket makes you one of the most delusional posters I have seen.

Also as facts say, Maxwell is not an allrounder.

Maxwell as a pure batsman is better than Pandya, no reason to compare their bowling as Maxwell is a part timer while panyda is a genuine allrounder.

Look at u calling out nationalities when u dont even know. Bro i am a pakistani but not the biased one like you who sucks up to some posters and gora culture.
But the fact is you are quick to jump to conclusions yourself but the fact remains maxwell wasnt best cricketer in his team ever let alone the world.
He wasnt picked after his horrific 5 tests and rightly so. Far lesser batsman played for aus and u think stokes would never find a spot there. Talk about being biased.

Stokes has won 2 finals
Has won tests singlehandedly which maxwell can not even dream of

Exactlyy maxwell is a pure batter and he wasnt the best in his eleven even.

He said maxwell has far better fc record and could not make it to aus team because the played marsh lmao. A player who wasnt deemed good enough in comparison to marsh is better than a teat veteran who played 110 tests

Indians are a delusional nation by default. Indians who proclaim modi as a peaceful ambassador yet burn down cricket stadiums and ask for genocide during war times dont have a right to call me delusional.

I never said stokes isnt > those 2. Just pointed out the teams. Beau Webster is surely > him and would have made his debut earlier if not for certain bias Australia had.

Also as facts say, Maxwell is not an allrounder.

Then explain why hes listed as a batting allrounder on cricinfo, a batting allrounder on fantasy league, a batting allorunder in every pre match card?

Should I believe them or shall I believe a wannabee?

Yes for me

Ah the typical yes for me argument 🤣. Okay yes for me the world is flat and 2 + 2 = 3. Its facts bro

It was obviously the wrong call to play marsh over him

Maxwell has a better fc record and should have played tests.

Maxwell has a better fc record. End of.

Oh yess believe the internet and stats. Now again webster is better than stokes. Let him play 100 tests than we ll talk

But u did say maxwell is better than stokes ad stokes wont make it to austrailian team vcz of certain players playing. Why?? Kabhi us kaan ko pakarty ho kabhi is kan ko

If someone said Stokes is overrated, I could have understood that but this guy is calling him a bad test cricketer, imagine the stuff you need to get this high.

Kapil Dev averages 32 with the bat and 29 with the ball, I suppose he was not a good test cricketer too!

Completly different era in regards to Kapil. Besides I view him as an odi player. He wouldnt make it into my all time test 11.
 
Bro i am a pakistani

Press X to Doubt.
Well nobody doubting ur nationality nor ur non existent knowledge of cricket dw. I d know more about Pakistan than you and then u can press all the x and y you want.
 
Oh yess believe the internet and stats. Now again webster is better than stokes. Let him play 100 tests than we ll talk

But u did say maxwell is better than stokes ad stokes wont make it to austrailian team vcz of certain players playing. Why?? Kabhi us kaan ko pakarty ho kabhi is kan ko
Yes cause of certain players. Either due to bias and preference in the same manner as how mcsweeney was preferred over konstas for BGT initially or because better players then maxwell like Webster can take his place.
 
Completly different era in regards to Kapil. Besides I view him as an odi player. He wouldnt make it into my all time test 11.
Bhai har player all time 11 main ajata hai??? Khuda ka khof kro. 11 players k ilawa sab buray hogaye??
Stikes avg 36 with bat and 32 with ball. As good as rahane and zaheer khan combined. And no someone on pakpassion behind a keyboard thinks he isnt good cricketer

Which gym does Wahab riaz visit in Lahore and whos his Personal trainer.
 
If someone thinks Maxwell is better cricketer than stokes chalo kher bacha hai man letay. But to say he would be better test cricketer because he had better fc numbers is laughable. Fawad alam has better fv record than many test greats. So he is better than them?

Maxwell is a better t20 cricketer. Stokes is a better odi cricketer.

No point in comparing their test careers as maxwell wasnt given an opportunity hence I dont deal in hypotheticals.

Fawad Alam plays on Pakistani pitches. Not aussie pitches.

Which gym wahab riaz visits in lahore 😂😂😂
What is this even

I d tell you when you have to get your head tested in lahore do let me know i am in health care and will help you with ur evaluation
 
Indians are a delusional nation by default. Indians who proclaim modi as a peaceful ambassador yet burn down cricket stadiums and ask for genocide during war times dont have a right to call me delusional.
Yeah, I knew it, you don't even have a passport, let alone being an Australian citizen. The mask is slipping off !
I never said stokes isnt > those 2. Just pointed out the teams. Beau Webster is surely > him and would have made his debut earlier if not for certain bias Australia had.

Also as facts say, Maxwell is not an allrounder.

Then explain why hes listed as a batting allrounder on cricinfo, a batting allrounder on fantasy league, a batting allorunder in every pre match card?

Should I believe them or shall I believe a wannabee?
Beau Webster > Stokes
Rehne de, naa ho paega tere se.
 
Maxwell is a better t20 cricketer. Stokes is a better odi cricketer.

Stokes win odi. Stokes win tests. Maxwell wins t20.

So isnt it obvious who is better cricketer. No shame in accepting you are wrong.

I can also generalise the community of people who initiated the Pahalgam attack but again I would rather stick to cricket.

Are you claiming im stateless?

Beau Webster > Stokes

I claimed webster > Maxwell. Maxwell was never given an opportunity in test so no point in comparing their test careers. stick to odi and t20.
 
Stokes win odi. Stokes win tests. Maxwell wins t20.

So isnt it obvious who is better cricketer. No shame in accepting you are wrong.
No point in comparing tests as maxwell wasnt given an opportunity. Its a nonsense comparison.

By this logic Bevan would be below many cricketers by default as he wasnt given an opportunity in test either.
 
Stokes is underrated on PP.

@Mamoon is quite influential. He doesn't rate him ( wrongly I believe) but his stance influences many other posters to not rate him.

Test performances, in Ashes a match winning knock in an ODI final and a match winning knock in T20 final, these are things that many batsmen can only dream of.
The only posters Mamoon can influence are those with zero thinking ability. That guy took a 180 on all his views in the last one year, it looks like he is the one who got influenced.

This guy is babar hater and when mamoon said that this will be babars year and he ll score heavily this guy went like o you sre mostly right it might be true. Mamoon said stokes is over rated but this guy took way too much from that and said maxwell is better even in tests. Now rana ll come and say smth and this guy ll again start following that

There is a meme about vlass crs and teachers. This guy is the cr and they are his teachers.

My cousin goes to Gym with Wahab riaz daily at 10am. this information is not on google.

now educate me, which gym does he go to. Are you telling me a Pakistani citizen who lives in pakistan isnt aware of where a Pakistani celebrity goes to gym? Yet an overseas pakistan is fully aware?

Whyy?? Stokes put his sweat into it. He is better cricketer than maxwell accept it.

A 100 tests is no joke.

When did I say that? I've been arguing about ba/riz exclusion for nearly 2+ years now.

Infact when on earth have I ever agreed with mamoon? This is the first time I share a similar opinion regarding stokes, otherwise when have I claimed my opinion is wxact?

Gosh you know nothing about me. Mamoon and I literally fought like cats and dogs a year ago and got warned multiple times.

We aint friends dawg.
