Glenn Maxwell won’t feature in Australia’s eagerly-awaited clash against arch-rivals England after suffering a concussion on a golf course on Monday, October 30.
Maxwell,35, fell from a golf cart while heading to the team bus from the clubhouse and is reportedly expected to remain under concussion protocols for a week.
Australia’s head coach Andrew McDonald has confirmed that there is nothing much to worry about and the star allrounder will start with some light exercises to progress towards making a return.
“He’s been honest with the information he’s provided. He’s doing fine. He’ll start some light exercises today and we feel as though it will be a reasonably straightforward return-to-play protocol. I suppose the fortunate part was there was no other injury sustained which could have been a lot worse that it currently is,” told McDonald as reported by ESPNcricinfo.
“I think it rattled everyone to be fair once it came to the conclusion there was a concussion and he was going to miss a game. There was nothing untoward in the behaviour throughout the day: it was a clear-cut accident and unfortunately, it’s compromised what we are doing as a team,” he added.
