In 2012, George joined the Melbourne Stars in the Big Bash League, marking a new phase in his T20 career. Internationally, he also played in the Indian Premier League (IPL), representing teams such as Chennai Super Kings, Kings XI Punjab, and Rising Pune Supergiant across various seasons. Unfortunately, during his stint with Rising Pune Supergiant, he sustained an injury that sidelined him for the remainder of the season. In a subsequent season, he was not picked by any IPL franchise.
George Bailey made his international debut in 2012 in a One Day International (ODI) against New Zealand. He was later entrusted with captaincy responsibilities, a move that sparked some controversy given his relatively short international experience at the time. Nevertheless, he captained the Australian ODI side in 29 matches, leading the team to 16 victories. Three matches were abandoned due to rain. In the Twenty20 (T20) format, he captained Australia in 28 matches, with 14 resulting in wins.
During his international career, George scored three centuries in ODIs. His most notable innings came against India, where he amassed a personal best of 156 runs. Although he has not achieved similarly high scores in T20 Internationals, his leadership and consistent performance have been commendable. Over the course of his international career, George has received five Man of the Match awards and one Man of the Series honor.
While specific figures regarding George's salary and net worth are not publicly disclosed, his successful cricketing career and continued presence in the sport suggest a considerable financial standing. He also maintains a strong fan base across social media platforms, reflecting his popularity and continued public interest.
