[World Cup 2023] Glenn Maxwell Is Not A Big Show, He Is A Flop Show: Harbhajan Singh

The ICC ODI World Cup is a stage where cricketing giants clash, making it a spectacle for fans worldwide. Australia, a team with a storied history, entered the 2023 World Cup with high hopes. Despite their impressive track record, they’ve faced a rocky start this time around.

In their opening match, Australia squared off against India in Chennai. Expectations were high, but the result was far from what they had hoped for. The Australian team, with five World Cup titles under their belt, was bundled out for a mere 199 runs. This defeat marked their first loss in an opening World Cup match since 1992.

The Indian team, led by the dynamic duo of Virat Kohli and KL Rahul, showcased their prowess. They managed to chase down Australia’s target with 52 deliveries to spare, handing the Aussies a sobering six-wicket loss. It was a wake-up call for Australia and a moment of celebration for India.

Following their disappointing start, Australia’s performance didn’t see an upturn in their second match against South Africa on a sunny day in Lucknow. They decided to bowl first, and it turned out to be a costly decision. The Proteas piled on the runs, amassing 311 in their innings.

Australia’s bowlers struggled to contain South Africa’s aggressive batting. The fast and fiery deliveries from Lungi Ngidi and Kagiso Rabada left the Australian batsmen bewildered. In the end, Australia was bowled out for a mere 177 runs. This 134-run defeat marked a new low for Australia in the history of the ICC ODI World Cup.

A major concern for Australia in this tournament has been the performance of Glenn Maxwell. Known for his explosive batting and handy spin bowling, Maxwell has been a shadow of his former self. His contributions with the bat have been minimal, scoring just 15 runs off 25 balls against India and a mere 3 runs off 17 balls against South Africa.

In light of Maxwell’s dismal performance, former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh did not mince words. He expressed his views, saying, “For some, Maxwell may be a big show, but for me, he’s a flop show.” These words have added to the scrutiny and pressure on Maxwell, who is struggling to find his form.

Australia is currently facing Sri Lanka in Lucknow, seeking to redeem themselves after their initial setbacks. Their journey in this World Cup has been a rollercoaster ride so far, filled with ups and downs. The cricketing world watches with bated breath to see if Australia can turn the tide and once again assert their dominance on the world stage.
