Maxwell seeing the 0.5% win probablity for Australia after over 22/
"So You're Telling Me There's A Chance?"
Indeed, a 1 in 200 chance, no less.
@@eeehan77 I'm in ths US now and I told my coworker who only vaguely understands cricket about it and even he was genuienly shocked. If a normie gets it, you know it's legendary.
Waa the dropped catch when Maxwell was on 36 (?) the most costly drop of all time?
If that was in a world cup final, then yess
Here in Australia (AEST) those final moments occurred around 3.30am when most people are fast asleep. I'm so glad I was awake to see it!
It was certainly a once in a lifetime event! Here in Bombay I turned down the offer to go watch the game at the stadium :(
I stayed up all night to catch it, also just in time for me to lose internet (thanks Optus)
This innings reminded me why I'm angry that Maxwell was never given a decent run in Tests even though our batting was so weak at the time. I always felt he could win us Tests and should have been persevered with.
Don't get carried away.. tests and ODIs are different.. mumbai with its batting friendly and small boundaries was a crucial factor apart from the magic from Maxwell
What Travis Head has done brilliantly for Australia in the Test team I wish Maxwell had the same chance.
Absolutely. Outrageous talent with the bat was evident from the start. But people wrote him off as a slogger.
You really reckon he could do that on a 4 day old deck with a red ball and no fielding restrictions? Come on man. This was a fantastic knock but let's not get carried away
@@louquay Nobody is saying he would make 200 off 120. They're saying he could make legit test tons. If you really can't see how, just look at Travis Head in the last few years.
Talk about Maxi for as long as you want. What an innings. What a player. Privileged to have witnessed.
he sucks
That was an absolutely incredible innings by Maxwell. Initially I was cheering for the Afghanis but once Maxwell passed 50 I started supporting him, it looked impossible but we love an underdog!
Afghanistan were always the underdogs until Australia lost their fifth wicket.
It was one of the best innings in ODI (if not the best) but surely you two could have mentioned just how woeful the bowling was to him once he got injured. Afghanistan just lost the plot and continuously bowled length at him at the same pace. There was little wide stuff, short stuff or off pace deliveries that would have made him have to work a little harder.
Watch again there was short stuff and change of pace and wide stuff as well... That's why he couldn't hit a lot of deliveries
@@soumyachatterjee805 right it happened on the odd occasion but not consistently enough. They got spooked by the odd cut shot that went for four and the reverse lap he hit for 6 and so they decided bowling in the slot was the better option 🤷♂️
I'm relieved that the best odi innings while chasing is out of the way. The rest of Aussie batting is questionable, to say the least. India be like, just bring it!
First task is south africa. And they won't drop a sitter like Mujeeb. Batting first is 70% chance to win against Saf.
@@WaveRider1989Does S.A. knows how to win the knockouts? Australia do.
Are you joking?
@83subho yes true but they can play good cricket lol. They did come close many times, but hey, gotta keep trying.
I was there in the stadium and let me tell it was euphoric . What an inning. What a match , what a player . I will remember the match my whole life and it will be folklore for generations to come .
I was so happy to see you two together on today’s podcast describing the indescribable. Maxi. A feat of courage, will, joy, love of the game, and humility in the man of the match speech.
Hey, you both definitely make my world a slightly better place - just not as much as Maxi!
All the Afgans needed to do was bowl Maxi slow and wide and set the field accordingly. Make him move, which he couldn't in the second half of his innings. They bowled him on the legs and he kicked them to the ground.
It was pathetic Bowling by afganistan and poor captaincy, Rashid Khan for all his hype was clue less and has to learn more and long way to go
@@thiru_asc1yupp average bowling
One of the greatest ODI innings ever, especially against a rising power like Afghanistan. But the fielding side completely botched this one. Dropped catches, poor bowling, not taking advantage of Glenn’s cramps, not making him reach for deliveries.
They were sitting back and celebrating already after the seventh wicket. A player like Maxwell only gives you one or two chances tops.
You guys have done a superb job summarizing a game that’s so incredibly hard to narrate to capture what happened on this Day. As an Indian following it , it was enthralling, and like Jeff mentioned, we feel for Afghanistan player and the coach too.. there was a brief instant where Jonathan Trofts face was captured, and the heart break and lost look on his face was heart wrenching. But having said all this ,
We were incredibly lucky to watch something like this !
It’s one the greatest innings I have personally seen in any format of the game and that’s pretty much everyone’s opinion as well… if there was a movie made about a story like this.. I would have called it an RRR type of movie and critiqued it that the director had exaggerated the hero’s achievement because, such a thing could never happen in Real life , except it did ! Just unbelievable and just incredibly awesome that I got to see it !!!!!
Wow MAXWELL and 5 Time World Champions Aussies 🇦🇺🔥🔥🔥
Maxwell was possessed and my mother n me bowed in front of tv screen with respect
Thanks for taking the time over this day’s incredible events. It required at least 35 + minutes and I’m sure you guys could have gone for twice as long and still not covered every event in that match. I have always liked Maxwell’s style, (even though he is an Aussie and I’m an England supporter), the grit, sheer determination and range of strokes he showed today should shut all his detractors up for good, (though sadly it probably won’t).
None of it would have been possible if Cummins wasn’t as disciplined as he was. He did what he had to do to keep Maxwell from having to run. Easily the greatest ODI innings I’ve ever seen and I say that as an Indian fan.
Similar to how you guys needed a bit more reflection to make the video, I had to wait for a day to watch as well. I really couldn't believe it and I was really sad for Afghanistan yesterday. But after a day it feels appropriate to realize Maxwell's amazing innings for what it is. That was a really nice sumup guys!
Can imagine Geoff getting full body Cramp calling that innings by himself. Lying down just a moving head next to the microphone on the floor.
Maxwell has been one of my favourite players since I 1st saw him smash Tassie in a List A Game circa 2011. I think it was the fastest list A 50 at the time, certainly the fastest Aussie one. I think he is the greatest lost opportunity of Australian cricket of this generation. (Phil Hughes' tragic death aside). Very obviously one of the most talented bats in the country even at that age. But he was pigeon-holed as a limited overs slogger & treated very poorly by the selectors. Sad to think about what he could have been as a test player if nurtured properly and given a fair go. But I'm stoked to see him light up this World Cup.
Afghanistan should have won. You don't drop catches and let a guy score 200.
Unbelievable! Literally. And at the heart of why we watch sport, not just entertainment but making the unbelievable real. Up there with Stokes, Laxman, Rohit etc. across forms for me. No need to rank them (why do we feel compelled to do this?) they are all truly incredible.
This innings and victory give such a morale boost to Australians and have the potential turning point for Australia to clinch the world cup
Australia really saved NZ's bacon today 👍
Amazing innings, I thought he'd have to go off when he started cramping up so bad. But that was sheer guts and determination
What an absolute privilege to have seen this unfold...like you cant write this innings in script..Maxwell became immortal
Finally, the ticking clock is back! Well done, lads 👏
Easily the greatest one day innings. What a knock, take a bow
I wouldn’t say easily.
@@harifedererEasily. Kapil Dev's innings was great, this was beyond that.
@@gswombat it’s not limited to those two innings
In disbelief hours later the game, after Labuschagne run out I thought we were history.
Incase if Max played against India/SA/Eng, I would say this is the greatest inning in world cricket history...... However, against minow😇 I would say great inning😊
Fielded for 50 overs bowled 10 overs scored 201 not out in extreme conditions 🤷🏻♂️ NO BIG DEAL, like f##k absolutely absurd and I watched it live 🇦🇺🏏🇦🇺 YOU BEAUTY.
Maxwell will forever remain hero number 1 for taking his team to victory.
Whoever is batting second in Mumbai in the semi finals.....😅😂🤪😬
Just need to be smart about it. Unfortunately most aren't anymore used to playing T20.
I think the key is not to loose wickets in the first 20 overs at Wankhede while chasing. A set batter or two can pretty much chase anything par or sub-par here.
Great ball striking and a gutsy performance by one of the most talented short format cricketers from Australia ! But to call it “the greatest ODI innings” i don’t think so !! as this game was meaningless to Australia and was not against India NZ England SA Pakistan or even Sri Lanka or Bangladesh. Compiling stats against Netherlands or Zimbabwe or Ireland or Afghanistan in group games is the same as any of Rohit Sharma double tons or Chris gayle.s innings in 2015. To qualify for The greatest ODI list please at least restrict it to the finals or semis of the WC or Champions trophy at least when there’s real pressure and something on the line like Gilchrist or Ponting etc Wake me up when the big show actually produces in one of those games. He is definitely talented based on all his century records in ODI his test century under pressure against India etc but in the clutch ODI games he’s mostly choked or tried to give away his wicket like against Pakistan in 2015 where again a crucial catch was dropped. Feel free to be homers for the first Aussie ODI double ton but to put this on list of greatest ODI innings is a disservice considering it’s context and opposition. Please factor in the game and context. AB in 2015 had an even better knock statistically for his 162 or Viv Richard’s in terms of difficulty it feels like we are all in a rush to anoint something the greatest in today’s cricket so let’s all take a break and carefully evaluate each on its merits and context before the announcements and proclamations!!
Geoff, reading your Guardian piece on Maxi was, to a degree, like reading poetry because we watched something more happening than a man wacking a ball with a bat however skilled that was. We watched something indefinable on show. Something difficult to describe in words. But something that moved us. And that is what poetry does. It moves us by succinctly giving words to the indefinable.
what a ridulous effort from maxwell. Smacking 6 after 6 with no foot movement whatsover - crazy.
Praise Maxy...enjoy the present. Why Compare with previous greats n ruin the fun??? Forgot Tendulkar's dessert storm? Forgot Steve Waugh against SA? Forgot Sir Vivian? Two easy drop catches n one miraculous DRS escape. Great great innings but greatest my ass. Against clueless n inexperienced Afghani bowlers??? Give me a break
This was better than Stokes and Leach at Headingly. In that match they had all the time in the world, and Stokes not hampered by injury. This innings had time pressure, limited overs and then injury into the mix. The only thing different I suppose is Cummins is a far more accomplished batsman than Leach.
Greatness
I wanted aussie win silently without making any noise. its Too LOUD even for aussies. Aussies will choke in next game
Love the program guys, but can you get the volume balanced - can barely hear Geoff.
it clearly showed afganistan has bad captain. I want to talk to Trott. give me his email to me.
I wondered why there was so much @Geoff comms on the highlights!
Supernatural Innings
Great work fellas. Most appreciated!
Greatest inning ever❤
#legend #maxwell
Greatest innings ever!!👏👏
This may get lost but...I am interested to hear your thoughts on the Stoinis catch.
I am a big believer in the fact that as long as fingers are under the ball, contact with the ground is still OUT. For instance, Gill was clearly out in the WTC final and the Strac catch from the Ashes was clearly not-out. But in the Stoinis catch I saw the ball move from one hand to the other while grazing the ground on the way. As I understand the laws that is not-out. I am curious as to why you think there was umpire error.
This game was on the verge of going down as Afghanistans greatest world cup win with an impressive performance from them in all aspects, until Maxwell came to bat. He was not willing to let that happen. I just wish some of the England players played with the same intensity and desire.
Such an incredible innings
Bad luck Taliban
I don't recall Cummins hitting a boundary.😅
This is why ODI should remain as one of three formats!!!
Cummins hit the fastest IPL 50 in the same ground! 4:53
Maxwell is the only player having such a high ceiling
Jane Saville. Elite references here, Geoff
Screw Maxwell , Now everyone root for india to win world cup.
Why?
@@twainhouson-frederick1847 People by logic root for underdog. With MAXWELL inning aussies are threat to india winning. In that situation People's positive energy go india's way
I wanted india to choke in semifinals or finals. now i dont think that way.
Its not maxwell fault...he did to make aussie win.
Its just that Universe want India to win this world cup
@@clonedmosquito??! Pass the drugs mate. Wtf u smoking
Maxwell’s brilliance matched only by the ongoing disappointment of Starc’s bowling
Truth. What's up with him. Disheartening to see
Dunno. But it’s concerning heading into semis our strike bowler can’t take wickets in the power play or hit his lines and lengths at the death. He needs to find form asap
@@worker-wf2emmaybe he will wake the fukk up in knockouts only
Inexperienced bowling and lack of international experience… otherwise any other top 8 team would have never let Maxwell score so easily and more especially he was playing with an injury. International cricket is not a joke! I felt sorry for afghan bowlers, they are too young g and inexperienced! But I guess this podcast is not going talk about it due to certain factors! If it was India, the boys would have found any excuse to discredit the performance!
Hard to tell when no Indian has played an innings like this.
Indians always the victims, never your fault
Bashing an minnow 😂😂😂
There has been many great innings against much better experienced attacks! From the likes of Tendulkars Sehwags Pants etc etc
When I am in a sucking off competition and my opponent is an indian. Brother let a person have his say
will this momentum take Australia to World cup Title! This Confidance of we can win from any where?
This instills the killer Instinct in the team. We could see a complete Australian performance in the knockouts against India.
@@83subho
@83subho Lets C
I remember a certain podcast about how Kohli slowed down due to his milestones… you think Indians don’t feel the hot conditions and they don’t get tired. VK first batted for all running singles for 50 overs in afternoon sun and then feilded for 50 overs. I could see after finishing his half century he was breathless and the guy is 35. Easy for new batters who are fresh to come and hit boundaries and sixes at the end of the innings.
Such a great episode talking about Maxwell, cricket, passion, and Australian win but unnecessarily Adam Collins has to take one customary dig at Indian cricket, not BCCI, mind you, it has to be Indian fans or cricketers. Constant efforts to make this world a far more hateful and divided place, Collins never fails with his cynicism. Just can't let go without laughing off or making fun of India. He is not even racist, just a moral and intellectual supremacist. Ibrahim Zadran paid dues to someone else, you would just report it as it is and talk about it positively but what could Sachin do, he was a shit batter, wasn't he, or like always again for the millionth time you implied that Indian fans have low IQ and Ibrahim played them. Adam Collins is a true leftist and a true cricket fan, and India, or every Indian according to him rightwinger and xenophobic. Collins' videos should be made compulsory by right-wingers to teach how to constantly tell someone that they are not good enough as a civilization. With his intellect, we can increase supremacism in the world along with racism. After all, it is all about making this world a far worse place. All hail Collins! By the way, Adam, ICC still has not announced that the world test championship will not place as you had promised in March that if India lost, you guarantee it will never happen again. Let's nominate Collins for Pulitzer of Hate.
Adam collins was having a dig at Virat Kohli for being slow and playing for milestones while every shit Australia or England does is great!
@@somyashivhare9644 My problem is not even taking a dig at cricketer, take as many as you want it. Its the constant effort to show that Indian fans are just fanatics and have no intellectual capacities, as if world would be better without Indian fans. This is what he constantly does and now he wll come up and say oh you are nationalist and problem starts with you. Even if lot of Indian fans are not good, can you club them all, well if you are Adam Collins, you can! So much of hate, just because of BCCI and I am not even defending BCCI. I have got a list of his supremacist examples. Every single episode, he will shame you for being an Indian and Indian cricket fan as if that is criminal or it simply means you can have no intellect.
Who the h is Adam Collins! Sachin Tendulkar is the great of the game! It’s just the white supremacy and the racist mind talking! The man scored 100 of hundreds I bet Adam Collins wouldn’t know how to hold a bat even!!
But maxwell will get runs only with small teams like Netherlands & Afghanistan and rest of matches he scores only 30’s
It was still the greatest ODI innings of all time.
What a dumb comment. Talking like Afghanistan aren’t a chance to make semi finals. Or have one of if not the best spin bowling line ups in the world.
@@andrewdawson3979 their spin bowling shattered. There is a difference in small teams and good teams. Chasing at night in mumbai ground its difficult and in the last 4 matches 17wickets in first 10overs and an avg bowler getting wickets and India got the same with new ball and once ball gets old and ind still takes wickets and bad teams like AFH cannot take wickets and also maxwell got many lifes to get 201*
@@andrewdawson3979granted. Afghanistan did give maxwell 2 chances, 1 very easy catch. Nevertheless, 91-7 and 200 run 8th wicket partnership is next level. 201 during chasing is insane. 😅
Afghanistan were magnificent today and have already shown their clear quality this tournament, particularly in the field. Lots of parallels with Kapil's 175.
Poor Afghans
