00:00 Glenn Maxwell battled through pain and became the first batter to hit a double hundred in
00:06 a run chase in ODIs in a magnificent evening in Mumbai on November 7.
00:11 The Maxwell magic had the crowd at the Wankhede Stadium roaring and cheering for the Australian
00:16 legend.
00:17 Maxwell scripted a knock reminiscent of Kapil Dev's iconic 175 not out in the 1983 World
00:23 Cup as he single-handedly pulled off one of the most unthinkable heists with the greatest
00:29 ever World Cup performance.
00:32 Former and current cricketers showered Maxwell with praise for playing an all-time great
00:37 knock that helped Australia book a semi-final spot at the 2023 Men's Cricket World Cup.
00:44 Reacting to the knock, Pat Cummins, who was unbeaten on 12 and involved in a double century
00:49 stand with Maxwell, said that he thought it was the greatest ODI in age.
00:54 "We are just chatting about it, all the players, and we have decided it's one of those days
00:59 where you just go.
01:01 I was there in the stadium the day Glenn Maxwell chased down that total by himself," Cummins
01:06 exclaimed in the post-match press conference.
01:10 Australia great Ricky Ponting was lost for words when asked to describe the innings.
01:14 "It is hard to put into words.
01:16 Tonight is something we are going to be talking about for a very long time.
01:20 What an innings like that can do around a team is that it can create unbelievable belief
01:25 that you can win from anywhere," Ponting said.
01:29 Australia cricketers also took to X to shower Maxwell with praise.
01:32 "Innings of a lifetime.
01:34 Hats off, Maxwell," Yuvraj Singh, one of India's finest players, wrote.
01:39 "Congratulations, Maxwell.
01:41 Clearly the best ODI innings ever.
01:44 Has always been the most excited player in the world to watch in my opinion," wrote the
01:48 former Australian cricketer Adam Gilchrist.
01:51 The master blaster Sachin Tendulkar also heaped praise on Maxwell.
01:54 Taking to X, he wrote, "A wonderful knock by Zadran to put Afghanistan in a good position.
02:00 They started well in the second half and played good cricket for 70 overs.
02:03 But the last 25 overs for Maxwell was more than enough to change their fortune.
02:08 From max pressure to max performance.
02:11 This has been the best ODI knock I have seen in my life."
02:14 "Kya sorry.
02:16 It's arguably one of the greatest ODI innings ever.
02:20 So many records tumble and rightly so.
02:22 Can't put Sachin innings into words I guess.
02:24 Immortal stuff.
02:25 He is always gonna be remembered for this night in Mumbai.
02:28 Lit it up and how."
