Glenn Maxwell was acquired by Punjab Kings for ₹4.2 crore in the IPL 2025 mega auction. However, the all-rounder has scored just 41 runs in five innings at a poor average of 8.20, including a golden duck in their season opener. With the ball, he has taken four wickets in six matches at an economy rate of 8.46.
“He hasn’t changed the way he has approached the IPL. There have been times when he’s been a little casual. He’s the same as he was, maybe eight to ten years ago. I’m a little critical, but there are times when, as a player, you need to wake up," Pujara said while speaking on ESPNCricinfo.
"I'm sure he wants to perform but when you're not performing there's a fine line of being causal and just trying to pull up your socks and trying to perform."

Former Indian batting coach Sanjay Bangar backed Glenn Maxwell to continue the approach he used in his recent innings, where he took the time to settle before playing big shots. Bangar pointed out that Maxwell had tried to attack from the very first ball earlier in the season.
