‘Fit And Firing’ Maxwell Hopeful For T20 WC 2028, LA Olympics, Refuses To Set Retirement Timeline
Maxwell, 37, would be 40 when Australia hosts the 2028 T20 World Cup, scheduled just months after cricket’s return at the Los Angeles Olympics. While questions have surfaced about his longevity, particularly after Australia’s group-stage exit at the recent T20 World Cup and a dip in personal form, the dynamic all-rounder says he is in no rush to make a call on his future.
"I think not making a decision around my future was probably based more on what's to come over the next 12 months. There's not a whole lot of T20 cricket planned, so there's probably no need to make any sort of formal announcements and just see how my body's going and see how I'm travelling, and if there's an opportunity to play in the future, hopefully I'm fit and firing,” Maxwell told reporters in Melbourne on Wednesday.
