IPL 2025: Top 3 players RCB might release ahead of the mega-auction
RCB finished fourth in the last edition of the IPL.
2. Glenn Maxwell
RCB bought Glenn Maxwell for INR 11 crore in the auction. The all-rounder did reasonably well but in the 2024 edition of the competition, his form dropped and following which, the Australia international took a break from cricket and returned later in the tournament. His overall performance however wasn’t up to the mark, which may force RCB to look for alternatives.
In 2024, Maxwell made only 52 runs in nine innings and picked up just six wickets. He failed to justify his spot in the playing XI and given his injury concerns and form, RCB are unlikely to back him for another cycle. He has done reasonably well in Major League Cricket but that’s unlikely will convince RCB to retain him.
On top of that, the 35-year-old isn’t getting any younger. He will be over 36 before the next season begins and may even call his time before the next cycle completes. Thus, it’s ideal for RCB to move on and bring younger talent into the mix.
