Maxwell’s Unbeaten 62 Takes Australia To A 2-1 T20I Series Win Over South Africa
Glenn Maxwell: Glenn Maxwell produced a stunning late assault to guide Australia to a tense two-wicket win over South Africa in the deciding T20I game at the Cazalys Stadium on Saturday to seal the series 2-1 in the hosts’ favour.
Chasing 173 for victory, Australia looked in trouble at 122/6, before the big-hitting Maxwell took charge with an unbeaten 62 off 36 balls, laced with eight fours and two sixes at a strike-rate of 172.22. He held his nerve to strike the winning runs off the penultimate ball of the chase and roared in delight after conjuring up a remarkable rescue act in front of a sell-out crowd watching its first-ever men’s T20I.
In the chase, skipper Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head took time to find their rhythm but managed to stitch together a crucial 66-run stand in eight overs. Captain Marsh did most of the damage on his way to hit a 37-ball 54 studded with three fours and five sixes – also his first T20I half-century in over a year.
