For Glenn Maxwell, it was all about a lot of grit and a bit of luck!
At the Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday, he stamped his class with a career-best unbeaten 201 as Australia snatched a three-wicket victory against Afghanistan from the jaws of defeat and sealed a spot in the World Cup semifinals.
After Ibrahim Zadran’s maiden century (129 n.o., 143b, 8x4, 3x6) in the tournament helped Afghanistan put on 291 for five, not many expected Australia to turn things around as it was reeling at 91 for seven in the 19th over.
