Australian cricket star Glenn Maxwell has opened up on his battle with depression, revealing if he didn't seek help while he was at his lowest ebb he may have taken his own life.

The talented all-rounder, dubbed 'The Big Show', revealed he did himself no favours by masking how he was really feeling during his toughest period as he appeared on episode four of the documentary The Test.

'I tried to fake everything I did. I went through depression and that was on the back of 18 long months trying to do everything right by anyone else,' he said.

'When I put my hand up [in 2019] when I was struggling, if I hadn't let it go ... a couple of weeks later who knows where I would have been. 

'That could have been the end. I just wouldn't have had nothing more to aim for and that could have been it.'
