It may have been Glenn Maxwell's wonders with the bat which have illuminated this World Cup - but Australia fancy it's his less-heralded prowess with the ball that could prove just as critical as they enter the business end of the tournament.
While they'll wait until the morning of their final group match in Pune against Bangladesh on Saturday to decide whether to risk Maxwell for the fray after his hobbling double-century heroics against Afghanistan, Australia will definitely rely on his underrated off-spin in next week's semi-final with South Africa in Kolkata.
Australian spin coach Daniel Vettori, New Zealand's former star tweaker, is credited with helping Maxwell develop the wiles which have made him one of the most economical bowlers in the tournament - but the Kiwi is adamant it's all down to 'Maxi's' own unquenchable enthusiasm and dedication.
