Big-hitting Aussie batsman Glenn Maxwell has said he has no reason not to travel for the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League if everything gets ticked off.
The postponement of the men’s T20 World Cup has paved the way for IPL to take place this year. The BCCI is planning to stage the tourney from Sept 26 to November 8 in UAE.
“Any time you have a home World Cup, you are certainly looking forward to it. We felt like we had been building towards it as a T20 side,” Maxwell told Fox Sports. “You wait and see (with the IPL), waiting on the judgments of other people, what you can and can’t do with travel and quarantine times and all that, if everything gets ticked off there, I have no real reason not to go.
“The overseas guys get a hell of a kick playing in it, some of the best players in the world rubbing shoulders, similar to a World Cup, but on a smaller scale. If everything gets ticked off I would love to be available for it,” said Maxwell who will play for Kings XI Punjab in the tournament.
