In the world cup match against afghanistan on Tuesday, Glenn Maxwell turned in an incredible performance, hitting an undefeated 201 from 128 balls and leading australia to a semifinal position with 19 balls remaining. Maxwell had an incredible century, surviving two early catch attempts and conquering cramping that kept him from sprinting between wickets. Rather, with three wickets remaining, australia successfully chased down the total of 292 as he easily cleared the boundary. His amazing performance featured 10 sixes and 21 fours, the last of which took him to the double tonne and secured Australia's victory.
Maxwell's outstanding effort came at a crucial juncture when australia was reeling at 91-7 against Afghanistan's 291-5 total. Australia's victory sent them into the semifinals, where they will face south africa and india in the final four.
