NEW DELHI: Royal Challengers Bengaluru all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has disclosed that he is taking a “mental and physical break” due to his poor form and a “hip strain.”

In an appearance on ESPN’s ‘Around the Wicket’ show, Maxwell revealed his hip injury, stating, “I’ve actually got a little bit of a hip strain so I’ve got a few more days off and during recovery.” <\/p>\n

He added, “So I’ve got a little period here where I’m still training, still trying to get myself right.If there is a spot that becomes available, I’ll obviously put my hand up and take it.”
Maxwell emphasized that his return to the team is not based on a fixed timeline, saying, “It’s not one of those things where I’ve set a date that I’ll be out for three games then I’ll come back whenever I’m ready. That’s not how it works. I haven’t been at a level that’s good enough to warrant a spot on the side this year.”

Maxwell expressed his enthusiasm, saying, “I’ve been speaking to Ricky Ponting and a few other players a fair bit over the last little period and certainly extremely excited to get stuck in.”
He added, “It’s a tournament that I watched from afar last year and was extremely excited about hopefully playing this tournament one day and luckily enough the timings have aligned this year.”
