Perhaps I did not get the experience of first class cricket that I would have liked.
Happy Birthday Glenn Maxwell: When Maxwell played the best innings in ODI history while standing on one leg in the World Cup
Maxwell is celebrating his 36th birthday on October 14. Glenn Maxwell (Image Credit- Twitter X) Glenn Maxwell 200 Innings in ODIs: Australian cricket team’s all-rounder Glenn Maxwell is celebrating his 36th birthday today on 14th October. So on this occasion the cricketer has received many good wishes from the cricket world including his fellow players. Maxwell, fondly called Maxi by the fans, is one of the leading all-rounder players not only in Australia but also in world cricket. So today in this article we are going to tell you about an innings played by Maxwell, which was recorded in the golden letters of ODI cricket history. When Maxwell made the impossible possible Let us tell you that not much time has passed since Maxwell played the best innings in the history of ODI cricket. Maxwell played this inning against Afghanistan during the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 held in India last year. Maxwell played an unbeaten inning of 201* runs in 128 balls in the match, and led the team to an extraordinary match win. This innings of Maxwell is appreciated till date in the cricket world. If we tell you about that match in detail, the 39th match of the World Cup was played at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. In the match, Afghanistan won the toss and decided to bat first. Batting first, the Afghan team scored 291 runs at the loss of 5 wickets in 50 overs on the basis of Ibrahim Zadran’s unbeaten century of 129*. So when Australia set out to chase this target, its start was nothing special. In the second over, opener Travis Head was out without opening the account. After this, wickets started falling one after the other. Players like David Warner 18, Mitchell Marsh 24, Marnus Labuschagne 14, Josh English 0, Marcus Stoinis were out cheaply after scoring 6 runs. Australia had lost 7 wickets for 91 runs. But Maxwell, who came to bat at number six, held one end and did not give up. Maxwell made the Kangaroo team win the match by making an unbroken partnership of 202 runs with captain Pat Cummins for the 8th wicket. However, it was not so easy for Maxwell. He was having cramps during the match and was not able to run easily. Maxwell got injured several times on the field while running, but his never-say-die attitude played an important role in the team’s victory. Maxwell’s innings was declared by Wisden as the best ODI innings of the year 2023, while Australian captain Pat Cummins called it the best innings in ODI history. See this innings of Maxwell
BGT 2024-25: “If we play well against them then…”, Glenn Maxwell said about Ashwin-Jadeja.
These two (Ashwin and Jadeja) are the only players we have faced consistently – Glenn Maxwell R Ashwin, Glenn Maxwell & Ravindra Jadeja (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The Indian cricket team is going to tour Australia for a five-match Test series under the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in November this year. Team India had won 2-1 in both the previous Test series in Australia. Rohit Sharma and Co. now aim to win their third consecutive Test series on Australian soil. Meanwhile, Glenn Maxwell has described India’s spin pair Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja as game changers. The all-rounder believes that if Australia faces these two players well then the team will be in a better position. Glenn Maxwell said this about Ashwin and Jadeja Glenn Maxwell while speaking on Star Sports said, I think after playing against players like Ashwin and Jadeja for a long time, it feels like both of them are players we have faced consistently and our battles with them often determine the outcome of the game. If we play well against those two (Ashwin, Jadeja), we will generally find ourselves in a better position. Both of them have been with me for most of my career because they are almost the same age. Ashwin and Jadeja have played a huge role in the previous India-Australia matches. Together they have taken 821 wickets in 330 innings, including 50 five-wicket hauls. Maxwell gave this statement regarding Jasprit Bumrah Speaking further, Glenn Maxwell praised Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah. At present, Bumrah is performing brilliantly in all three formats. He won the Player of the Tournament in the T20 World Cup 2024 by taking 15 wickets in 8 matches. I was there in his (Jasprit Bumrah) first season of IPL in Mumbai in 2013 and faced him almost every day in the nets. It is an amazing story to see him go from being a young, untapped talent to possibly the best bowler across all three formats to what he is today.
