Former Indian team captain Sourav Ganguly praised Glenn Maxwell's match-winning innings played against Afghanistan, but he did not agree that it should be considered the greatest innings of the ODI format.

 

Recall that Glenn Maxwell had given Australia a memorable 3-wicket victory over Afghanistan. While chasing the target of 292 runs, the Australian team lost 7 wickets at the score of 91 runs. Then Maxwell led the Kangaroo team to victory by scoring an unbeaten 201 runs in 128 balls with the help of 21 fours and 10 fours.

 

The special thing about Maxwell's innings was that he struggled with cramps and pain, but continued to play till the end and led the team to victory. While talking to journalists on the sidelines of Delhi Capitals' training camp in Kolkata, Sourav Ganguly gave his reaction to Maxwell's innings.

Will go.

 

Afghanistan should have won the match

Sourav Ganguly also believes that Afghanistan should have won the match against Australia because they had a good grip. Ganguly said, "Afghanistan played very well and they should have won." Maxwell played a brilliant innings. But Afghanistan's bowling and captaincy were not good.
