Bat-and-Ball Sports

Glenn Maxwell, born on 14 October 1988, is an Australian all-rounder who has played Tests, One Day Internationals and Twenty20 Internationals for Australia, and plays for Victoria and the Melbourne Stars in the Big Bash League. Known for unorthodox and inventive batting, including reverse sweeps and pulls, he first bowled medium pace before switching to off spin. He made his ODI debut against Afghanistan in 2012. At the 2023 Cricket World Cup he hit the fastest century in the tournament's history, 40 balls against the Netherlands, and a record-setting double century against Afghanistan. He was part of the Australian squads that won the 2015 and 2023 Cricket World Cups and the 2021 T20 World Cup.
