05 May 2026

Australian cricketer Glenn Maxwell has expressed his willingness to play 50-over cricket for Victoria, even after retiring from ODIs.

The player, who is now a one-format player, lost his Cricket Australia (CA) contract last month.

Despite the setback, he remains open to representing Victoria in One-Day Cup matches when available and needed.

Notably, Maxwell retired from ODIs in June last year.

Career trajectory

Maxwell played two One-Day Cup games for Victoria in September last year, six months after his ODI retirement.

He even scored his first List A century for the state against Queensland during these games.

The matches were part of Maxwell's preparation for the T20I tour of New Zealand.

It remains to be seen if the 38-year-old takes part in the 2028 ICC T20 World Cup.
