Description

Glenn James Maxwell is an Australian professional cricketer who plays for the Australia national cricket team in Twenty20 Internationals. He previously played Test cricket and ODI cricket, winning 2 World Cups before his ODI retirement. Maxwell is an all-rounder who is known for his sometimes unorthodox batting and bowls right arm off-break deliveries. Domestically he played for Victoria and Melbourne Stars. He was part of the Australian squads that won the 2015 Cricket World Cup, the 2021 T20 World Cup, and the 2023 Cricket World Cup, where he played what was widely regarded as one of the greatest innings of all time against Afghanistan, scoring 201*, and in the 2023 final, scored the winning runs. His ability to make unconventional shots like reverse sweeps and pulls often makes it hard to set fields that cover all of his scoring areas.
