Glenn Maxwell Blazes Away with Record-Breaking Century for Australia
Glenn Maxwell stole the show in Australia’s dominant 309-run victory over the Netherlands in the Cricket World Cup. His fiery knock of 106 runs off just 40 balls, including nine fours and eight sixes, stands as the fastest century ever scored in the tournament.
Despite Maxwell’s breathtaking performance, David Warner also contributed significantly with a century (104) of his own, marking his 22nd ODI hundred. However, Maxwell’s record-breaking innings undoubtedly overshadowed all other contributions.
However, Maxwell expressed strong disapproval of the mid-match light and sound spectacle, calling it “the dumbest idea” and claiming it triggered headaches for players. He urged organizers to reconsider the practice, highlighting the negative impact on players’ focus and well-being.
Australia will look to build on this momentum in their next encounter against New Zealand, scheduled for Saturday in Dharamsala.
