Marsh speechless at Maxwell innings.
In the lead-up to Australia's must-win match against West Indies, acting coach Justin Langer spoke of how important Glenn Maxwell's experience and finishing ability could become at the business end of the tri-series. As if on cue, Maxwell produced a jaw-dropping 46 not out from 26 balls to deliver Australia into the tri-series final and left his batting partner Mitchell Marsh lost for words at the other end.
Australia needed 62 off 50 balls with six wickets in hand when Maxwell walked to the crease, a man who had failed to reach double figures in any of his past five ODI innings and had been dropped earlier in the series. But Maxwell found his x-factor and got Australia home with eight balls to spare, along the way reverse-sweeping Sunil Narine for six.
"I said give yourself a few balls mate and then go for it," Marsh said. "I was literally speechless at the other end watching an innings like that. Maxi has had a lot of doubt and hasn't been in the greatest of form but an innings like that tonight shows why he's one of the first picked in this side, because he's so dangerous and can win us games like that in a few overs. Really rapt for him.
"He actually told me we'll just take them for ones. Next thing he's playing a reverse-sweep for six. I absolutely loved it. Maxi is a free spirit, you've just got to let him go and do what he does. When it comes off like that it's unbelievable to watch."

Make that 5/51. The South African batting is showing that it is brittle against soft, slowish pies. We should bear that in mind as part of our preparation for our next Test series against them. |
