Unbelievable Jeff! My word
Greatest ever wc innings? Only double century at wc?
That was some show .
I love how Aus turn up for the big occasion. Great team.
Lost the first 2.. won 6 in a row now..

Gayle and Guptill have doubles in 2015 iirc
Never seen anything like that. Take a bow Glenn Maxwell.
Absolutely staggering stuff

Maxwell - 50 off 51 balls, then scores 151 off the next 77 
Many of those 77 balls he couldn't score off, cuz he couldn't run

Special innings pleased for him to get to 200
Just brilliant knock. Shame for afgan but they should be proud of their efforts this tournament.
Am I misremembering or did he get dropped very early on?
Incredible.
Yes, was a sitter as well
Wow have just seen the result and to think I stopped watching at 91/7....
Incredible from Maxwell, shame Afghanistan couldn't get over the line.
Mujeeb might not be able to sleep for a fortnight after this. Disaster showing.
Incredible stuff from Maxwell. Never write off the Aussies.

the best thing is you’ll probably be caught up in a match fixing scandal now.
Incredible from Maxwell.
So most likely one of the sf will be Sa vs Aus. The other will be either Ind vs Nz or Ind vs Pak. Unless Nz and pak both lose their respective games and Afg win against SA.
SA vs Aus is now definite
Yes saw thw points tally after writing my post. Maybe time for SA to erase the 99 wc trauma.
Wow Maxwell. One of the GOAT ODI innings. Take a bow. Poor Rahman dropped him on about 30 as well. Ouch.
Talk about making the most of your luck! Brilliant from Maxwell but hopefully the Afghanistan team come out fighting for the next match and Mujeeb gets some catching practice!
Best innings ever. fecking insane
Pretty sure OZ are winning the tournament now
Superb from Maxwell.
Another decent display from Afghanistan though, they need more games against the 'bigger' sides.

Maxcum.
It'll be a great team that beats India
Ridiculous effort from Maxwell.
Really great innings by Maxwell but that was some really poor bowling by Afghanistan, specifically after he started to cramp up. No variations at all. Literally everything in his hitting arc. He was literally standing like a statue and swinging his bat. Not one delivery outside off stump, barely any slower balls, etc.
Incredible innings from Maxwell but honestly might be an even bigger choke. Genuinely can't believe Afghanistan didn't win from where they were.
South Africa with a very bad result in recent memory, versus Australia looking a bit resurgent, on an Eden Gardens pitch that doesn't seem to suit South Africa..
Not looking great

That's ridiculous from Maxwell. Surely the Greatest ODI innings ever, all things considered. No support, the injury, qualification at stake, and the sheer scoring rate. Out of this world.
just wow. I boarded a flight when it was 95-7 thinking it was all but done. Got off the flight saw AUS won and Maxwell got 201 not out. Crazy stuff can't wait to watch the highlights!Whatever happens, the only chance SA have now is to win the toss so they can bat first, otherwise we don't stand a chance regardless of who we face and we bowl first.
I went to sleep thinking Afghanistan had this in the bag. Wow, Maxwell.
Nah! The Aussies are like roaches, you just can't kill 'em offSorry, looks like I jinxed it
