Cricket Australia on Monday announced that contracts of Australia’s Twenty20 captain George Bailey and all-rounder Glenn Maxwell have been upgraded to the national contract list.
According to News.com.au, Bailey, who is currently leading the Australian team in the ICC World T20 in Sri Lanka, made his one-day international (ODI) and T20 International debuts earlier in 2012 and was upgraded on August 31 after playing six ODIs.
If Australia win the World T20 trophy this Sunday, the 30-year-old Tasmanian will at least be on CA’s books.
Maxwell’s contract was upgraded on September 22 after playing four ODIs and four T20Is.
CA released its annual list of contracted players in June 2012, having cut the number from 25 to 17 with some players having opportunities to win upgrades depending on the number of games played.
