Maxwell defeated the Netherlands last week with the fastest century in World Cup history – a 40 ball century. At the World Cup he has 196 runs at an average of 39.20 and four-off spin wickets to his credit. The 35-year old suffered a bizzare accident during a birthday party last year that fractured his leg.
