Mark Wood to Maxwell, SIX, Maxwell finishes it off in a grand way! Second T20I century for Glenn Maxwell and Australia win by 5 wickets. A pacy fullish length ball angled in on leg, Maxwell moves leg-side and swings his bat hard to biff it over deep mid-wicket. Gets it just over the fielder manning the fence. He has his arms aloft and then gets hugged by his partner

Mark Wood to Maxwell, no run, a dot! Wood banged it short, Maxwell moved leg-side and slapped it to cover

Mark Wood to Carey, 1 run, back of a length delivery with a bit of extra bounce, tucked softly to backward square leg for a single. A loud applause from the Hobart crowd

Tom Curran to Maxwell, 2 runs, in the air and safe. Maxwell toe-ends the lofted drive over extra cover and comes back for an easy second

Tom Curran to Maxwell, FOUR, shot! Full ball, Maxwell stays deep in his crease and thumps it over mid-off. Not a great idea to bowl full with mid-off inside the circle

Tom Curran to Maxwell, 2 runs, normal-paced full length delivery, Maxwell squirts it out through backward square leg and comes back for the second

Tom Curran to Maxwell, FOUR, off-pace shortish ball, Maxwell waits for the ball after clearing his front leg. Heaved away through mid-wicket. Can Maxwell get a ton here?

Tom Curran to Maxwell, 2 runs, backs away and slices this puy delivery over backward point. Didn't get the required timing as he got it off the outer half of the bat

Tom Curran to Carey, 1 run, slower ball from a short of length, dabbed to backward point

Jordan to Carey, 1 run, another pacy yorker length delivery, Carey manages to squirt it out – courtesy an inside edge – and keeps the strike with a single

Jordan to Maxwell, leg byes, 1 run, full ball on leg, Maxwell misses the flick. Hits the front pad and rolls to square leg. A run scampered
2
Jordan to Maxwell, 2 runs, a mistimed pull shot and the ball doesn't carry to the fielder. Jordan bumped one short and Maxwell loses his timing as he goes hard against it. The ball falls wide of the running across long-on fielder – Billings

Jordan to Maxwell, 2 runs, good diving stop by Billings at long-on. A pitched up delivery and Maxwell thumped it over the non-striker's head. Billings saved a couple there
