Overview'It’s easy captaining Maxi. You just need to get out of the way.' Pat Cummins Discover the exhilarating story of Glenn Maxwell, the daring batsman and all-round Australian cricket maestro. During the 2023 Cricket World Cup in India, Glenn Maxwell played the most audacious, improbable innings in the history of one-day cricket. Yet less than a year earlier he had been in hospital with a shattered leg, unsure whether he would ever be able to play again. This is the story of that year, from devastation to triumph; twelve months of frustration on the road to recovery, as well as jubilation when Glenn became a father. It’s also an exploration of his life before – the moments and decisions that informed this defining year. For over a decade, Maxwell has batted with a style that is deeply creative and at times crazy-brave, while bearing the criticism of those who find his style more exasperating than exciting. At the same time, he has become a vital bowler and one of the world’s best fielders. However, his career has also been dogged by depression and self-doubt. Now, one of cricket’s great entertainers tells his story in his own words. The Showman offers a captivating exploration of an enigmatic talent, whose name is synonymous with the thrill of the game. 'Maxi is about genuine care and connection. There’s so much more than meets the eye.'

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationGlenn Maxwell is an Australian professional cricketer and one of the fastest scorers in world cricket. He mainly plays One Day International and Twenty20 games and is known for his unorthodox batting and unconventional shots. His reverse sweeps and pulls make it difficult for the fielding team but also come with risks, so he is a cricketer that can enthral as well as exasperate. In November 2023, he set a new record for the fastest double century scored in a World Cup, becoming just the third person to do so. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
