Glenn Maxwell Warms Seat for Travis Head
The California wildfires have raised concerns about the impact of climate change on the state's wildfire season, with over 50,000 acres burned, 6,000 structures destroyed, and 29 fatalities reported, resulting in an estimated $1 billion in damages.
Glenn Maxwell has confirmed he is currently "warming the seat" for Travis Head in Australia's T20I lineup, despite his strong performances as an opener, and believes he will likely be replaced by Head when he returns.
Maxwell's statement comes as he acknowledges the team's plans to set up their T20I side in a certain way, with Head being a key part of those plans. Despite this, Maxwell has been performing well as an opener, but he is aware that his position is temporary.
Meanwhile, in other news, a series of devastating wildfires is sweeping through California, forcing thousands of residents to flee their homes and claiming multiple lives. The blazes have burned thousands of acres of land, destroyed numerous structures, and displaced countless families.
The situation in California remains dire, with many areas still under threat from the wildfires. Emergency responders are working tirelessly to combat the blazes and evacuate those in harm's way, while the cause of the wildfires is still under investigation.
