Virender Sehwag (Screengrab) New Delhi: Former Team India Batter Virender Sehwag is never one to minimize words, and this time it’s Glenn Maxwell and Liam Livingstone who find themselves in their fire line.
The former Indian opener killed two top foreign stars and accused them of missing hunger and intention to contribute meaningfully in IPL 2025.
“I feel that Maxwell and Livingstone’s hungry is gone. Yeh Yaha Holiday Manane Aate Hai (they just come here on vacation). They come, have fun and leave. There is no visible desire to fight for the team,” Sehwag said on Cricbuzz, and evoked their indifferent performance this season.

Glenn Maxwell, known for his explosive batting and the ability to change the game, looked like the shadow of his former self.
All-Rounder Aussie managed only 41 runs in six matches on average 8.20, with a strike exactly 100.
His bowling, although slightly better, with four goals in the economy of 8.46, was not enough to cover the glaring emptiness in his launch posts.

Do you think Glenn Maxwell is inadequately powerful in the IPL 2025?
Liam Livingstone, on the other hand, showed the views of his power affected by fitness, with a lonely fifty and 87 runs in 7 games. However, its average of 17.40 and inconsistent trips did not justify RS 8.75 Crore RCB spent on it.
Its part -time rotation also could not have an impact and brought only two goals.
“I spent time with a lot of former players, but only 1 or 2 really gave me the feeling that:” Yes, I really want to do something for the team “,” Sehwag added.

Since the franchises invest considerably in overseas stars, expectations are high.
But if players like Maxwell and Livingstone do not renew their hunger, they risk becoming passengers in a tournament where everything is.
