Australia all-rounder Glenn Maxwell won't be available for the Pakistan tour and he will also miss the initial few matches of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2022). He is part of the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) franchise.
Maxwell and his girlfriend Vini Raman are all set to marry on March 27. He told Fox Sports that the clash of his wedding with upcoming cricket was unavoidable due to changes in the schedule.

"Originally when I organised the dates with CA there was a two-week gap where I could potentially have it," Maxwell said after the third T20 against Sri Lanka in Canberra.
"So when I sorted that out I was pretty happy that I wasn't going to be missing in any series. And then I came to the [CA] contract meeting midway through last year and they said well this is [when] the Pakistan series [is on] and I thought well obviously that's changed since the last conversation we had."
The IPL tournament is likely to start in the last week of March, while the limited-over series against Pakistan will kick off from March 29.
