Glenn Maxwell, take a bow! And he wasn't our only hero as Australia took an ODI series win against England with two balls to spare.
"What makes him so damaging is he can play all around the ground. I don't think there's many bowlers in the world that can trouble him when he is having one of those days. The way he navigated that innings and took it deeper and deeper ... he did that perfectly."
It was England's first loss in a bilateral ODI series at home since 2015. England won the preceding T20 series 2-1. Leg-spinner Alex Zampa also took three wickets for Australia as England rebuilt around Bairstow's century.England were brought undone by two moments while letting Australia, who were again missing champion batsman Steve Smith, off the hook.
England wicketkeeper Jos Buttler dropped Maxwell off Rashid when he was on 44. Both misses proved incredibly costly, allowing Australia's match-winning partnership.
