Michael Bracewell is currently playing for Multan Sultans in PSL 2025. Like Glenn Maxwell, he also has trouble training.
With four games to go at the IPL 2025 League stadium, the Kings of Punjab are in a place where Glenn Maxwell. The Australian versatile has been excluded from the IPL with a fractured finger. While Maxwell had a bad race with the bat in this IPL, his off -tension spin added depth to the Bowling department of Pbks. However, with the IPL 2025 playoffs, the former commentator who became an India, Aakash Chopra, wants PBKS to be part of PSL 2025 and get Michael Bracewell to replace.
“Michael Bracewell is your ready replacement. Go ahead”, “ Aakash Chopra commented on Twitter.
Bracewell for Maxwell?
Glenn Maxwell had a horrible race with the bat, with an average of 8.00 in 7 sleeves before being excluded. He could only score 48 points with four scores with a figure and a duck. Its highest score was only 30. However, with the ball, Maxwell put four counters with an economic rate of 8.46. With Lockie Ferguson and Maxwell, both excluded, the kings of Punjab would need a replacement, especially with the playoffs in sight.
While the versatile New Zealand, Michael Bracewell, that Aakash Chopra wants as a replacement for Maxwell, also undergoes a massive collapse with the bat, his spin out of the line will be a bonus.
Bracewell played five games for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in 2023, scoring only 58 points in four rounds. But he won six counters in five rounds with an economic rate of 8.63. It could be a precious addition.

Michael Bracewell in PSL 2025
However, the problem is that Bracewell is currently playing in PSL 2025 for Multan Sultans after being invented during the 2025 IPL auction. While the versatile Kiwi started well, marking a stroke of 17 bales of 44 points against Karachi Kings, its shape has dropped.
During the following six rounds, Bracewell succeeded 16, 3, 9, 9, 0 and 2, with an average of 13.83. With the ball, he won six seven -round counters with an economic rate of 10.27. Before the PSL, Bracwell was in good shape in the NZ vs Pak T20i series.
But the real question is as follows: can PBKS make a Multan sultans raid like Mumbai Indians with Corbin Bosch. The South African versatile abandoned Peshawar Zalmi for MI in replacement of Lizaad Williams. While Bosch apologized for its move, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) did not take it lightly. PCB prohibited Bosch for a year from the Pakistan Super League.
While the Indians of Mumbai have their footprints in ILT20, SA20 and MLC outside the IPL, the kings of Punjab are not the same. PBKs only extended to CPL outside the IPL. Consequently, abandonments of multens sultans may not be an ideal choice. In addition, the pbks head coach Ricky Ponting is also not confident about the replacements available by the current PSL.
“So we were a little patient. Maxi was only a few days, Lockie’s was two or three weeks. And with the PSL which happens at the same time, there are not many high quality replacements, to be honest. So we were just patient. Said Ponting.
