Photograph: Mike Owen/Getty Images Glenn Maxwell’s all-out assault on Hobart has netted him and the Melbourne Stars the highest scores in BBL history, handing the Hurricanes a reality check with a 106-run hammering on the eve of the finals. Maxwell thumped an unbeaten 154 from 64 balls at the MCG, smashing 22 boundaries and four sixes in the most brutal display of hitting in the competition’s history. It helped the Stars to a record total of 273-2, 41 more than the next best in BBL history and the third highest in any franchise or international T20 game in history. Read more The star batter dominated the Hurricanes all round the wicket, with the shot of the night an outrageous switch-hit flick over fly-slip for six. His century was the second-fastest in BBL history, coming in 41 balls and just two shy of Craig Simmons’s 39-ball effort in 2014. The right-hander helped take 21 off one D’Arcy Short over, while he hit five boundaries for 22 runs off another from Sandeep Lamichhane. But he was not alone with Marcus Stoinis also finishing unbeaten on 75 from 31 balls. On the same night he lost his record for the highest score in BBL history, Stoinis also showed the Hurricanes no mercy. He launched s...

IPL is envy of world but Test format can't be sacrificed for franchise league cricket: Farokh Engineer 44.9 crore viewers watched IPL 2023 on JioCinema “I think with short boundaries (at the Chinnaswamy Stadium), they played heavy left-handers. Devon Conway batted for a long period in that innings,” said Maxwell, who could have taken the match away from MS Dhoni’s side had he remained at the crease for a little bit longer. The Australian all-rounder, who struck his second half-century in this IPL, added that bringing in left-arm spinner Shahbaz Ahmed to bowl to left-handers would have been a risky proposition. “I think, it would have been a risk to bowl Shahbaz Ahmed to those guys,” said Maxwell, though he added that the 28-year-old all-rounder was a “clever bowler”. Both Faf du Plessis (62 off 33balls) and Maxwell (76 off 36) departed in quick succession in the middle overs, with Dhoni taking their catches. The Australian wished he or his skipper had stayed a little bit longer, which could have turned the complexion of the game. “We did so well to get so close. We got into a position where probably we should have won the game, I suppose, if one of us was there a little bit longer.” “We were trying to get as hard as we could to get the run rate under 10 and make it a little bit easier at the back end. But a pretty exciting game of cricket, unfortunately we fell a little it short.” Maxwell said the conditions were just perfect for him to come out in his favourite position a...

Maxwell is known for his powerful and hard-hitting batting. Due to his tendency to play big shots, his teammates gave him the nickname "The Big Show." In He was released by Punjab Kings ahead of IPL 2021 after a disappointing season. Despite his inconsistency in the last season Royal Challengers Bangalore bought him for 14.25 crore after an intense bidding war against Chennai Super Kings in the IPL 2021 auction and became the third-highest overseas buy in the history of the tournament. He didn't disappoint this season and became the fifth batsman to complete 500 runs in the season and the first from RCB to achieve the feat.

Royal Challengers Bangalore's star all-rounder Glenn Maxwell(IPL) Maxwell has had multiple stints with different franchises (Delhi Daredevils, Mumbai Indians, and Kings XI Punjab) in the league, but hadn't been as consistent as he had been at the RCB. In a freewheeling chat with Danish Sait for the RCB Podcast, Maxwell revealed that he didn't expect the Bangalore franchise to retain him even after a stellar 2021 season, where he scored 513 runs in 15 matches for the side at an impressive strike rate of 144.10.

And like, with how many people they were going to retain and we had, obviously, a couple of bowlers — Siraj, Harshal, Yuzi (Chahal), then AB, Virat, and those young Indian players, and all could have been retained at some stage. So to retain an overseas batter, sometimes isn’t the smartest move," Maxwell said. "It seems straightforward, but in my head, there was obviously a lot more I had to go through. When I got the phone call that I was gonna be retained, I was pumped and couldn’t wait to stick around,” said Maxwell. In the 2022 edition of the tournament, Maxwell scored 301 runs in 13 matches for the side, playing at a brilliant strike rate of 169.10. Maxwell also took six wickets for the side in the edition.

One of the fastest scorers in world cricket, Glenn Maxwell has lit up the limited-overs formats and, at times, shown he can transfer that to the red ball. His ability to make unconventional shots appear routine - reverse sweeps and pulls, for example - makes it hard to set fields to cover all of his scoring areas. His audacity comes with risk, and he can exasperate as well as exhilarate, but at his best he can change a game in moments. In 2017-18 his career entered a confusing stage as he was dropped from the ODI side and then told by new Australia coach Justin Langer to "go and make hundreds" without seemingly being given the opportunities to do so. However, he re-established himself in ODI and T20I sides, playing some stunning innings on the tours of India and the UAE. He scored his third T20I century in Bangalore to help Australia chase down 194. Late in 2019, Maxwell took a mental-health break from the game. The time away, along with conversations about clarity of role with white-ball captain Aaron Finch, helped revive his form - he made four fifty-plus scores in six ODI innings in 2020, had an impressive IPL season with Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2021, and, in January 2022, became the first batter to breach the 150-run mark in a BBL innings. However he made little impact in the 2021 and 2022 T20 World Cups. Also a handy offspinner and outstanding fielder, Maxwell offers an impressive package in one-day and T20 cricket when things click. He made his name for Victor...
