Did Glenn Maxwell today played the best ODI innings of all time?

What is the best ODI innings of all time?

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Was it in a World Cup final?

/s

 

[ashley bach]

Rohit's 264 probably worth a mention too.

 

[Aidan11]

Viv for me although Kapil's is a close 2nd.

 

[Adorable Asshole]

Probably not given how pedestrian bowling was in the last half of the match.

But we can't ignore his cramp either..... My man stopped taking singles almost altogether. But yeah, Afghanistan has no one to blaim but themselves; with those dropped catches and that mediocre bowling

 

[Slifer]

Yeah I just saw his innings. Great knock and all but that one player dropped a dolly and don't Afghani bowlers know how to bowl a damn yorker??!!

 

[Burgey]

Yeah, this innings against a very poor 2023 Afghan attack certainly cannot be said to stand anywhere near Kapil's WC epic against [checks notes] 1983 Zimbabwe.

 

[Coronis]

Yo Glenn, I’m happy for you and Imma let you finish, but Gilly had one of the best innings of all time.

It was a decent Zimbabwean bowling attack tbf. Rawson, Curran, Fletcher and Traicos all pretty useful, and the match position of 9-4 (and then) 17-5 when Kapil came in isn't dissimilar.

Don't disagree with any of that. Am disagreeing with the innings last night being dismissed as unworthy of comparison.

Who did? Is this another fantasy in your head?

 

[Daemon]

It’s right up there. The drop catches and somewhat dumb bowling nerf it a little but it’s easily the best I’ve ever seen, and probably thereabouts with Kapil’s 175. KoB was special too.

Tbf afghanistan's bowling looked a million bucks to everyone except Maxwell

They were bowling great in the first 25 overs but after that it was just thrash. Maybe they just panicked after Maxwell started attacking them.

The bowling was excellent in the first half and completely fine thereafter up till about the point where Maxwell had already made 140-150.

Don’t forget he also had to think about maximising the strike and taking singles at the right time. Just an insane innings.

 

[Athlai]

Yeah Afghanistan's attack isnt bad at all. It's just not brilliant either. Its why I get frustrated when people talk about the ICC bowling rankings. They're very solid but 3 of them in the top 10 rankings is absurd.

3 in top 30? Sure.

You did. “Nup, bowling was ****, like my face and my posts” I believe you said wtte of.

Maybe it's just senility or maybe I just live rent free in your head but I said this innings was not as good as Kapil's one.

 

[Spikey]

They were bowling greatvin the first 25 overs but after that it was just thrash. Maybe they just panicked after Maxwell started attacking them.

So it was trash once they started only bowling at Maxwell
