Maxwell aspires Test re-call
As the Aussie put it, he is expected to play two Sheffield Shield games for Victoria in November-December this year, before he shifts focus to the Big Bash League 2022-23.
Maxwell sees this as an opportunity to put some first-class action under his belt. He further wished to be a part of the team's Test contingent after this summer ends.
"It's exciting, I haven't played (first-class cricket) since 2019. I did actually have a look at the schedule properly yesterday and I think I'm going to be available for a couple of Shield games before the Big Bash. It's nice to have that to look forward to and potentially get some red-ball cricket finally," Maxwell said as quoted to cricket.com.au.
"It's been a long time and having that taste of just being in the Test squad was so exciting and reinvigorated and reminded myself of where I want to be. It's something that I've made no secret about, that I really want to play Test cricket again and I'm just hoping by the end of the summer hopefully I can be somewhere around that Test squad," he added.
