Glenn Maxwell, the dynamic Australian all-rounder, finds himself back in the conversation for Test cricket selection as Australia prepares for their upcoming series in Sri Lanka. Team head coach Andrew McDonald expressed confidence in Maxwell's abilities to adapt to the subcontinental pitches.

Maxwell, who last donned the Baggy Green in 2017, missed last year's India series due to a leg injury. This time, however, his unique skill set could prove invaluable in Sri Lankan conditions, where sweeping techniques become crucial.

Despite recent setbacks and being left out of the India series, Maxwell's commendable showings in the limited-overs format keep him on selectors' radar. As Australia gears up, McDonald remains cautious about underestimating India's prowess, despite their recent struggles against New Zealand.
