With Saturday’s match against Mumbai Indians, Maxwell marked his first appearance in IPL 2022 after missing initial matches due to his wedding to Indian-origin pharmacist Vini Raman. He felt that his marriage gave him time to prepare well for the tournament.
“Not really (on marriage affecting preparation). It’s actually helped me a little bit. Having a week or so to prepare before the start of the tournament. Otherwise, it would have been a little bit rushed had I come straight from the domestic summer. So, I haven’t played for a month but spent a bit of time in the nets, preparing with some drills to get started and had a nice bit of lead-in to the game as well.”
Bangalore have four points from three matches and are looking to add two more against Mumbai. Maxwell signed off by hoping Bangalore continue their winning ways, especially with a ten-team league meaning the competition gets tougher.
