I am hitting the ball better than ever : Maxwell
Collected
|| Desk Report ||
Australian hard hitter batsman Glenn Maxwell believes he is hitting the ball better than ever in this World cup but just runs were not coming as per his expectation.
Maxwell has scored just 143 runs in eight World Cup matches. The swashbuckling batsman is scoring at a high strike rate—an amazing of 190 in this World Cup.
He has played some fiery knocks in this World cup but was unable to make those starts into big innings. He struck an unbeaten 46 off 25 balls against Sri Lanka and was cutting lose against Bangladesh with 32 off just 10 balls before getting run out, scoring 28 runs from 14 balls when the asking rate was high. But Maxwell is confident that runs will come, it’s just a matter of time.
"I feel like I haven't hit the ball better in my career, I just haven't got the runs," Maxwell said.
"It's been nice to be relaxed when I got out into the middle, just runs probably haven't come the way I would have liked but sure they aren't far away,” he added.
“If I was out form and out of runs I'd be a bit more nervous but feel I hit the ball in the middle the other day [against New Zealand] then got one on the toe end, so I'm not too worried. I've been training really well so a big one not far away," he concluded.
