Suffice it to say, the tumbles and falls for Cricket Australia keep coming even as they parade the ‘banned’ players in defiance. With Glenn Maxwell at the center of a storm, it remains to be seen how far matters go before the strain begins to tell between boards.

The relationships between the league of ‘big brothers’ as far as cricket boards may be tested after Glenn Maxwell, in a bid to counter the insinuations made by the television channel, Al Jazeera, that something akin to match fixing was going on in the Ranchi Test of Australia’s tour of India, a match in which Maxwell scored a century, threw reference to the Indian Premier League.

Maxwell became a household name as a result of his appearance in the IPL. However, throwing back on allegations that he could be one of the players implicated by the footage that is with the television news network and which the ICC has struggled to get hold of, Maxwell may have thrown more fuel to stoke the fire.
