Something that’s been weighing him down for a while: Glenn Maxwell

Virat Kohli - Glenn Maxwell

The Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell who has been retained by Royal Challengers Bangalore for this edition has shared a few words about the former skipper Virat Kohli.

Glenn Maxwell told to RCB podcast, "He knows he’s handing the captaincy over, which I think is potentially a big burden for him. It might have been something that’s been weighing him down for a while and now that he’s been able to release it, it might be dangerous news for opposition teams.

It is amazing for him to be relaxed a bit and actually enjoy the next few years of his career without any of that sort of external pressure."

"I think playing against him in earlier days, he was a fiery competitor, getting in your face. He’s always trying to impose himself on the game. Impose himself on the opposition," he added.

"Something I’ve noticed more from him this year is he’s been really measured with his emotions. He’s actually been really measured with his decision-making.

He’s certainly really surprised me and probably how close we’ve both gotten to each other as well this year. Being able to talk about the game in a calm manner," said Glenn Maxwell.
