    Remember watching Nathan Lyon batting at Lords when he could barely move? Yeah that’s what this is like, but Maxwell is hitting boundaries.

    Maxwell goes for a relatively sharp single and immediately collapses after making it to the other end, writhing in pain. That looked awful..

    Australia are now straight refusing singles. Boundaries only from here.

    Maxwell 150 up with a whipped boundary through wide mid on

    Two balls later, reverse scoops the pacer past the keeper for another four.

    Never seen anything like this. The bloke can’t walk, to the point where they’re not even rotating strike between overs anymore.

    Partnership of 154 and Cummins has made 11 of them off 66 balls

    Maiden over off the spinner because Cummins can’t take any singles even though he’s having no problem finding the boundary riders. Back over to Maxwell.

    Yes Maxwell has had his let offs but, given the circumstances, this is one of the best white ball innings of all time

    This is an all time great ODI innings. On one leg as well.

    Half a leg at this point it feels like. Maxwell moves onto 170 and felt up to running a single there, keeping the strike after hitting two fours and a six off the previous five balls

    Australia have been matched at 1.14 and 230.00. They are currently 1.33

    Incredible innings shouldn't have dropped him twice!

    Maxwell's last three innings - an incredible 323 runs off 185 balls

    Very clever from Maxwell to get off strike in what is Rashid's last over
  • Addick Addict
    Addick Addict Posts: 39,767
    And then he gets back on strike!!!

    Looks like Maxwell’s feeling up to running again, took three singles off Rashid Khan’s last over…

    Aussies only need 21 from 24 now

    Will Maxwell get his double ton?

    Maxwell brings up his 200 and wins the game with a six.

    Australia’s highest ever individual ODI score.

    does that help England ?

    really wanted the Aussies to lose. At 91/7 they were done.

    It was irrelevant. England can’t catch either team in the table.

    Forget the runs this was THE best white ball innings of all time for pure invention, manipulation and hand to eye co-ordination

    No way has Maxwell just played that innings on one leg. That's got to be one of the all time great one day innings ever.

    That's the best innings i've ever seen given the situation they were in

    Maxwell's last three innings - 348 runs at an average of 174 off the equivalent of 32.4 overs

    Not been watching or following this. WOW. That's a ridiculous innings.

    And makes a big difference to the table too, it was a crucial game.
