Maxwell Ruled Out Of NZ T20 Series With Wrist Injury; Philippe Called Up As Replacement
Hadlee Trophy T20s: Glenn Maxwell has been ruled out of Australia’s three-match T20 series against New Zealand after suffering a fractured forearm in a freak training incident at Mount Maunganui.
Cricket Australia confirmed on Tuesday morning that the 36-year-old allrounder will miss the trans-Tasman series, with wicketkeeper-batter Josh Philippe called in as his replacement.
Maxwell was struck on the wrist while bowling in the nets to big-hitting allrounder Mitchell Owen at Tauranga’s Bay Oval. The blow fractured his forearm, forcing him out of the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy T20s, which begin Wednesday. He will return home for a specialist review to determine the timeline for his comeback.
