Glenn Maxwell, the Australian all-rounder who won the World Cup with the national team, has announced his retirement from international cricket, ending a 14-year long career. ESPNcricinfo reports that the 38-year-old made his final appearance in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup against Oman. Maxwell had already retired from One Day Internationals (ODIs) in June 2025, and it is believed that a return to Test cricket is unlikely, as he last played in that format in 2017.
Maxwell joined the Australian national team in 2012 and has played 7 Tests, 149 ODIs and 130 T20Is. Throughout his career, he has scored 7,226 runs, including 10 centuries and 35 half-centuries, and taken 136 wickets. Maxwell played a crucial role in Australia's victories at several major ICC tournaments, including the ODI World Cup in 2015, 2023 and the T20 World Cup in 2021.
One of his most memorable performances came in the 2023 ODI World Cup against Afghanistan, when he scored an unbeaten 201 balls off 128 deliveries to help Australia win a crucial match.
