Maxwell scored an unbeaten 83 off 45 deliveries with 7 maximums and 1 boundary.
Melbourne derby is one of the most exciting matches of the Big Bash League (BBL). The match-up between Melbourne Stars and Melbourne Renegades on Friday (January 10) was no exception to that. From Shaun Marsh’s bat breaking into half to Maxwell winning it for the Stars, it was a good game of cricket for cricket lovers.
Stars skipper Glenn Maxwell, who is in superb form in this BBL, scored a superb unbeaten 83 off just 45 balls with 7 maximums and a boundary and took his team home.
