Maxwell also broke the ODI record for highest score batting at 6 or lower, which had belonged to Kapil Dev for over 40 years, since he made 175* v Zimbabwe in Tunbridge Wells in 1983 WC (the first game of cricket I ever went to).

Kapil Dev - India 17/5 & then he scored 175*(138) in 1983 World Cup.
Glenn Maxwell - Australia 91/7 & then he scored 201*(128) in 2023 World Cup.

Just to be clear, 175* by Kapil Dev sir is still the greatest ODI knock of all time

1983 Kapil Dev came in at 9/4, scored 175/257 of the next runs, 68%.
इसी तरह मैक्सवेल जब बल्लेबाजी कर रहे थे तो आस्ट्रेलियाई खिलाड़ी ड्रेसिंग रूम में अपनी जगह से तब तक नहीं उठे जब तक उसने मुजीबुर रहमान को छक्का नहीं जड़ दिया। जोश हेजलवुड ने मैच के बाद कहा ,‘ मैं जॉर्ज बेली के साथ बैठा था और एडम जंपा भीतर बाहर कर रहा था । वह नर्वस था लेकिन बाकी सभी अपनी जगहों से उठे नहीं।’’1984 Viv came in at 11/2 and scored 189/266 of the next runs, 71

2023 Maxwell came in at 49/4 and scored 201/244 runs, 82.4%
One of the greatest ODI Innings of all time. WHAT A PLAYER
