Gavaskar feels Maxwell is 2nd 360 degrees player in RCB after De Villiers
The Royal Challengers Bangalore that has taken off with superiority in the ongoing IPL has offered a silent challenge for the others, having registered four wins in a row. The addition of Glenn Maxwell has worked wonders for them as RCB remains the only unbeaten team in the tournament. Maxwell, who scored just 108 runs from 13 matches last year, has already surpassed his previous year’s tally with scores of 39, 59, and 78 from three innings. Impressed with Maxwell show Indian batting legend Sunil Gavaskar feels that the Australia batsman has proven to be another 360-degree player in the RCB camp while the first one is AB de Villiers. The kind of terrible shots Maxwell has been executing – the reverse sweeps, scoops, the switch hits, and others – Gavaskar reckons Maxwell will be difficult to stop this year.
“It's great that Maxwell has come sharp. He has taken the pressure off Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers. They know that they can rely on one more batsman to get the runs. Last time, there was Padikkal at the start of the innings who was getting the runs but this time, Maxwell has been batting extraordinarily,” Sunil Gavaskar said on Star Sports.
