Match Context
Maxwell returned to the playing XI after recovering from injury. He came in at the seventh position when Australia needed 70 runs from 41 balls. Tight bowling by Chakaravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, and Washington Sundar pressured Maxwell into a risky slog attempt. He missed the ball entirely, which went on to hit the wickets.
Australia was chasing 168 to win and looked promising initially before losing wickets rapidly. They were defeated by 48 runs, giving India a 2-1 lead in the five-match series.
Upcoming Match
The teams will meet next at the Gabba on November 8, 2025 (Saturday).
"Maxwell was bowled for the fifth time by the mystery spinner in T20s - the joint-most against any bowler."
