from the article above

This actually might be a bit of a kick up the back side by AB

Time to deliver champ, all the promises, talking, fancy shots aint working, start to deliver big or else..

I remember Boof saying something similar about a year ago after he had thrown his wicket away twice when a bit of maturity was required and he was dropped from the test side.

He wont change any time soon. He is just a decent hitter in the short versions of the game.

Shouldn't play too many more tests.

He talks about his natural game. Doesn't mean you try to show off in tests when it keeps failing for you.

Should take a look at Warner's measured aggressive test batting. Plays his natural game but mostly controlled with some good defensive shots. Still Warner has a strike rate of 70-75.

Maxwell is all for himself and not his team mates.

In the T20 the other night the way Maxwell got out was irresponsible.

I never heard a commentator be as disappointed as Brayshaw yesterday when he was talking about Show being dropped

When we lost the 3rd or 4th wicket had about 250 odd, Brayshaw said something like "Situation is set for Maxwell who isnt playing today, a big shame, Australia will have to improvise somehow"

Improvise? LOL, what a dead set uneducated tool


soon after Smithy belts his 70 odd and not a word about maxwell

TBH it was poor batting and a bit of a fluke from Smith though, not one reverse sweep in his entire innings and he waited until he was set to start going the tonk. What was he thinking? Does he even have any toys?

Thank for that James :D

The batting last night was great to watch. I hope Maxwell was paying attention but find it more likely that he would be found hiding under Brayshaw's chair at the commentary desk instead...

Bet this f**kwit thinks he's all that walking back to the pavilion with single figures in the runs column.

Maxwell THE FLUKE SHOW! :D

When he actually plays a good innings he gets a lot of luck.

I'm over people talking him up. His batting is overrated.

Very poor concentration levels.

who actually gave him the name the "Big Show"? if he did it himself he should of never been let anywhere near the Australian team as that is just an ego running wild if I ever have seen one

secondly, Brayshaw has absolutely no idea when it comes to commentary. I was watching the other night and sure we were 1-200 or something like that but we were never ever going to get to 380 as he predicted, as it turned out we were lucky to get to 320 after Smith played some great shots
