As
a
result,
Maxwell
will
be
unavailable
for
Australia’s
ODI
series
against
England
starting
next
week
as
he
will
undergo
a
long
rehabilitation
process
soon.

Reports
said
the
all-rounder
had
undergone
surgery
on
Sunday
(November
13)
and
Sean
Abbott
has
been
named
as
Maxwell’
replacement
in
the
Australia
squad
for
the
series
against
England.

“Glenn
is
in
good
spirits.
It
was
an
unfortunate
accident
and
we
feel
for
Glenn
in
the
circumstances
given
he
was
in
great
touch
in
his
last
few
games,”
Australia’s
selection
chief
George
Bailey
said.

“Glenn
is
a
critical
part
of
our
white
ball
structure
and
we
will
continue
to
support
him
through
his
recovery
and
rehabilitation,”
said
Bailey.
