Australia’s Glenn Maxwell took an absolute stunner in the Leeds ODI against England to get rid of Liam Plunkett when he was on 17. His incredible effort at the boundary line almost sealed the series for the Aussies. England, however, held their nerves to win a thrilling contest by three wickets to level the series, 2-2.
The series decider will be played at Old trafford on the 13th of September. But Maxi’s catch has the Twitter world talking.
Here are the best tweets!

Glenn Maxwell man of the match for me. Two of the best catches you'll see to go with his knock. But another super effort by Morgan.

Glenn Maxwell now holds the world record for least celebration for most astounding catch. Broke his own record for the Morgan catch earlier
