Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has announced his retirement from international cricket at the age of 38. Maxwell, known for his explosive batting and innovative shots, played 149 ODIs, 130 T20Is, and seven Tests for Australia. He is a two-time ODI World Cup winner and a T20 World Cup champion. Despite his retirement from international cricket, Maxwell will continue to play in the Big Bash League for Melbourne Stars. His final international match was against Oman in the T20 World Cup earlier this year.
Maxwell's career was marked by memorable performances, including a double century against Afghanistan in the 2023 ODI World Cup and the fastest 50-over World Cup century in 2023. He scored over 7,000 runs and took 136 wickets across all formats. Maxwell's retirement comes as Australia focuses on developing younger players ahead of the 2028 Olympics.
