I came across the word “Maximo” during my recent visit to Malaga, Spain, for the European Cricket Championship. It was used when a batsman hit the ball out of the park for a six.

One never then imagined how relevant the word would be, when Glen Maxwell played the innings of his life and one that will be remembered for years to come. A double hundred that made an impossible situation into a possibility. He fought through a pain barrier and displayed what sheer determination in the most adverse condition can achieve.
