Glenn Maxwell's IPL 2025 season with Punjab Kings is likely over due to a fractured finger, confirmed by captain Shreyas Iyer and teammate Marcus Stoinis. The injury occurred during training before their game against KKR. Maxwell, who has struggled this season with only 48 runs in seven matches, was replaced by Suryansh Shedge against CSK. Head coach Ricky Ponting acknowledged the challenge in finding a replacement due to the ongoing Pakistan Super League, hinting at a possible Indian replacement. The team is evaluating both overseas and local options, with a decision expected before their 12th match.
