Considering the format, Glenn Maxwell is one of the hottest prospects in T20 cricket, particularly because of his multi-dimensional skillset. However, KKR did not take him seriously, giving as many as two lifelines while facing RCB on Friday (March 29) at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.

Nevertheless, Maxwell failed to make full use of it, as the Australian all-rounder’s lean patch continued against the Purple and Gold Brigade.

While batting during the 15th over of RCB’s innings, Maxwell, batting on 28 off 19 balls, went for an ugly slog against Sunil Narine, who should have got him earlier before Ramandeep Singh dropped a sitter. All Maxwell could find from there was a huge top-edge near the backward point. Rinku Singh made no mistake, and pouched it with safe hands to end his stay.

RCB, after being asked to bat first, are 181/5 in 19.4 overs at the time of writing, with Dinesh Karthik batting on 19* off 7 balls. Virat Kohli, on the other hand, is batting on 83* off 58 balls, as they are looking for a strong finish.
