If we talk about Maxwell, then this season was no less than a bad dream for him. Maxwell has scored only 49 runs in six innings of seven matches this season at a bad average of just eight. His best score has been 30 runs. He was able to hit only five fours and a six, while once he was out on the score of the zero. Punjab also excluded him from playing 11 in two matches. However, despite a poor performance with the bat, Maxwell contributed to some matches with the ball. Now he is out of the tournament and it will be interesting to see whether Punjab involves a player in the team as his replacement.
