Men’s ODI WC: It Wasn't All Just Chaotic Swinging But There Was A Bit Of Planning To It, Says Maxwell
ODI World Cup: Australia all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has revealed his record-breaking innings of 201 not out off 128 balls against Afghanistan at the 2023 Men's ODI World Cup on Tuesday wasn’t all about swinging in a chaotic manner, and added that there was a bit of planning involved in taking the five-time champions over the line.
Australia were reeling at 91/7 in a run-chase of 292 at the Wankhede Stadium, when Maxwell joined hands with Pat Cummins to put on a 202-run stand. The skippercontributed only 12 runs as Maxwell took centrestage, battled cramps in calf, shin, hamstring and toes while battling bad back to single-handedly win the match through smashing the greatest ODI innings of all time.
Maxwell also revealed that thoughts of retiring hurt had crossed his mind. "It was certainly in our discussions. We talked about coming off, trying to get some work into my back and trying to loosen up my legs a little bit."
