  "summary": "Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell announced his retirement from international cricket on Tuesday during an episode of The Final Word podcast. The 38-year-old is also retiring from domestic 50-over and four-day cricket for Victoria, though ESPNcricinfo reports he remains available for the Melbourne Stars in the BBL. According to the Times of India, Maxwell intends to focus more on his fitness to prepare his body for the remaining tournaments in his career.\n\nMaxwell's 14-year international career included 149 ODIs, 130 T20Is, and seven Test matches. He was a member of Australia's 2015 and 2023 ODI World Cup-winning teams and the 2021 T20 World Cup winning side, according to the Times of India. The Daily Times reports that his decision followed his omission from Australia’s upcoming Twenty20 series against England, noting that he had previously stepped away from One Day Internationals last year.\n\nDuring his career, Maxwell scored 3,990 runs in ODIs and 2,897 runs in T20 internationals. His final appearance for Australia was against Oman at the T20 World Cup in Sri Lanka in February.",
