Chahal has got the better of Maxwell on quite a few occasion

Yuzvendra Chahal vs Glenn Maxwell has been one of the highlights of the player battles. Everybody knows Maxwell loves to dominate and take the attack to the opposition. He loves using his feet and also loves playing unorthodox shots against the spinners.

However, Chahal has been wary of that and has jotted out a strategy in every game he is tipped against the Australian star. More often than not, the leg-spinner has emerged out on top. In ODI cricket, when Australia were in India in 2017, Chahal dismissed Maxwell three times in a row. He has also dismissed Maxwell three times in T20Is and three times in the IPL as well.

Thus, Maxwell who has been in decent form in the Big Bash will look to settle the scores as in the absence of Kuldeep Yadav, Chahal looks to shoulder the responsibility of the spin department. Moreover, Yuzvendra Chahal is just five away from 50 T20I wickets and if he gets there he will become the second Indian spinner to reach the milestone.
