3 teams that could go for Glenn Maxwell

#1 Kings XI Punjab (KXIP)

Kings XI Punjab is another team that has disappointed over the years. They’ve qualified for the playoffs only twice in 10 seasons. They have chopped and changed quite a bit in the last few years. Even this year, they have retained only 10 players and have the highest purse going into the auction.

Like RCB, KXIP had massive problems in the middle-order last year and despite KL Rahul’s fabulous run at the top and after winning the first few games, KXIP’s campaign went downhill. Thus, no one needs a middle-order batsman as much as KXIP.

Maxwell lit up the IPL playing for the Punjab franchise in 2014 and helped KXIP reach the final. He formed a lethal pair with David Miller that season and tore apart some of the best bowling line-ups in that tournament. His underwhelming numbers led to his ouster from the team after the 2017 season. But KXIP could buy him back in the auction and strength their middle-order.
