Known for the unparalleled innovation, aggression, and energy he brings to limited overs cricket, Glen Maxwell is a valued limited over's player all around the world because of his outrageous range of shots and electric fielding.

Sadly however, his test career never really took off. After 7 test matches and a mediocre average of 26.07, Maxwell has had a very underwhelming test career so far. He however does boast of an achievement most Australian batsman would be incredibly envious of- a test century in India.

Playing in the third test of Australia's tour of India in Ranchi , Maxwell along with Steve Smith formed a vital 191 run partnership that took Australia out of harm's way in a match that eventually ended in a draw. Maxwell ended up with an admirable 104 in what was inarguably the best test innings of his career to date.
