Glenn Maxwell ODI XI: Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has recently announced his all-time ODI XI, which has created a huge discussion among cricket fans. Maxwell, popularly known as ‘The Big Show’, selected his team on Fox Cricket’s YouTube channel, in which he took surprising decisions, leaving behind many legends.
The biggest surprise was that Maxwell’s team did not include a single player from England, whereas according to the rules he was allowed to select only five Australian players. At other places, he gave opportunity to most of the Indian stars and this has become the biggest reason for discussion on social media.
Sachin-Rohit become openers, Kohli’s number 3 confirmed
Sachin Tendulkar and Rohit Sharma were selected in the team’s opening pair, which ensured that Australia’s star openers like David Warner, Adam Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden were out. At number three, Maxwell without hesitation included Virat Kohli, whom he described as “the run machine of modern cricket”.
Ricky Ponting and Michael Bevan in the middle order
Ricky Ponting got the number four place, while at the fifth place Maxwell placed former Australian finisher Michael Bevan, who had made impossible chases possible many times in his career.
Dhoni also included in the team
As an all-rounder, Maxwell has given preference to his countryman Shane Watson over legends like Ben Stokes, Kapil Dev, Yuvraj Singh, Mark Waugh. In the role of wicketkeeper, he has given priority to Mahendra Singh Dhoni in his team over Jos Buttler and Adam Gilchrist.
Which legends were included in the bowling attack?
Maxwell had many excellent options in the bowling department. In the spin department, Maxwell has included Indian legend Anil Kumble in place of Adam Zampa in his team, while in fast bowling he has selected Glenn McGrath, Brett Lee and Jasprit Bumrah. In this way, the bowling unit also included two Australian and one Indian players.
