Melbourne, Oct 9
Australia allrounder Glenn Maxwell has given an update after surgery on his fractured wrist, saying he is targeting a return during the back-end of the T20I series against India, starting from October 29
Maxwell fractured his wrist while bowling in the nets to fellow allrounder Mitchell Owen at Tauranga’s Bay Oval, forcing him out of the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy T20I series last month.
"The only reason I had the surgery was (because) the options they gave me were: miss that (India series) completely and (avoid) surgery, or have surgery, and it gives me a slim chance.
"When it hit me, I thought I was lucky that it hit just bone and it wasn't too much flesh, and it was going to be all right… a bunch of factors that make it an unlucky one. It just comes back too quick. It's not fun," he added.
