Faf du Plessis-led Royal Challengers Bengaluru team faced a major blow as their star all-rounder, Glenn Maxwell has sustained an injury and he is expected to miss their upcoming match against Sunrisers Hyderabad as well.

Glenn Maxwell is yet to hit his best of form

However, they are facing a challenging period in the ongoing Indian Premier League season. With five losses in six games, they are placed ninth in the points table. And, their recent defeat to Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians marked their fourth consecutive defeat of the season. The match took place on April 11th at the Wankhede Stadium as well.

RCB placed ninth in the points table

According to a report from News 24, Glenn Maxwell suffered an injury to his right thumb while fielding during the match against Mumbai Indians. The veteran all-rounder has been going through a rough patch in the current season, managing to score only 32 runs in six innings so far, with three of those resulting in ducks as well. Unfortunately, his third duck came during the match against MI.

However, Glenn Maxwell injured himself while trying to catch Suryakumar Yadav, who played an impressive 52-run knock in just 19 balls, completely shifting the momentum in favour of Mumbai Indians against Royal Challengers Bengaluru as well. RCB will play against the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on April 15th as well.
