The Royal Challengers Bangalore all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has brought four of his childhood friends from Australia to give them an experience of the cash-rich Indian Premier League in the RCB camp and India in general. Anthony Davies is a mechanical plumber, Brendon Walsh and Nathan Walsh are teachers while Aaron Daniels is an electrician and the quartet is currently in Bengaluru, getting to experience all the cricketing actions that RCB as a team has to offer.

“We were probably 11-12 years old, playing some junior representative cricket and Glenn even at that age was incredible, he is an incredible talent. I really enjoyed his energy and positive attitude and we really got connected from an early age and then Nathan, my younger brother, naturally became part of that group. Anthony, Aaron and I went together to the High School and through my connection, they met Glenn as well and from 15-16 this cricket group has been friends for life,” said Brendon Walsh, a childhood friend of Glenn Maxwell.

“I can only tell so much to these guys what it is to experience Cricket in India. I think this is my 27th or 28th time in India and I can only tell so much about life here but they experiencing it in person surely will be very special and will stay with them for long,” said Maxwell. “Maxi loves his golf but this one shot scares the daylight out of him -the 16-metre chip shot, it is not a full swing, as it is a half-swing and he needs to go with soft hands and I have never seen his knees wobble more,” added Walsh.
