Maxwell, 36, made the decision to step away from the 50-over format to focus on T20 cricket, especially with the 2026 ICC T20 World Cup on the horizon.
“I felt like I was letting the team down a bit. My body just couldn’t keep up in ODIs,” Maxwell said.
🔥 Career Highlights
- ODI Matches: 149
- Runs Scored: 3,990
- Wickets Taken: 77
- Strike Rate: 126.70 (2nd highest in ODI history with 1000+ runs)

🏆 A T20 Future Ahead
While he bids farewell to ODIs, Maxwell will continue playing T20 Internationals for Australia. He is expected to be a key player in the T20 World Cup 2026, to be co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka.
