Australia coach declares Maxwell in frame for Sri Lanka Tests Source : adaderana Newly re-signed Australia coach Andrew McDonald has declared veteran allrounder Glenn Maxwell “100 per cent” in the frame for a long-awaited return to Test cricket in Sri Lanka. The enigmatic Maxwell last appeared at Test level in 2017 when he featured on the tour of Bangladesh. The 36-year-old was all but certain to be included for the four-Test series in India last year, but was ruled out after infamously breaking his leg at a party. In his new book, The Showman, Maxwell wrote he would be doing himself an injustice if he gave up on his dream of adding to his seven Tests. Maxwell just needs to stay fit and in form and he should be considered for the two Tests in Sri Lanka, starting in late-January. His chances were enhanced after McDonald watched how New Zealand ...

Ashes opener axed, Maxwell’s exile extended as Aussies name Test squad – by Christy Doran Source:foxsports.com.au Australia have named a 16-man Test squad for their upcoming series against Sri Lanka, with opener Marcus Harris axed and no room found for Glenn Maxwell. While there were reports that Maxwell — the short-ball specialist who has played seven Tests — would be parachuted back into the squad for the first time since 2017, Australia’s three-person selection panel rewarded the members that did the job in Pakistan in March. Instead, spinners Nathan Lyon and Mitchell Swepson, who both featured prominently in Pakistan, as well as bowling all-rounder Ashton Agar have been selected. All-rounder Mitch Marsh will provide back-up for Cameron Green, while Scott Boland is the spare seamer selected. Nor is Maxwell in the Australian A side, with the batting all-rounder to instead feature in the short-form Australian side, with national chair selector, ...
