When Glenn Maxwell turned firefighter

By Saurabh Sharma December 31, 2019 • 09:52 AM View: 1166

Sydney, Dec 31: Australian batsman Glenn Maxwell had an unusual interruption to his pre-game routine. Maxwell reacted quickly and managed to quell a bushfire with a fire extinguisher before it could cause any more harm.

Dale Steyn, who is Maxwell's team mate at the Big Bash League side Melbourne Stars, put up a video of the incident in his Instagram story, which was later tweeted by the league. "Saves the day mate!" Steyn had said in his caption for the video.
