Speaking to reporters ahead of the T20 World Cup 2024 fixture against Afghanistan, Maxwell humorously acknowledged his impact: “They haven’t had a lot else to talk about in the last few months. I do find a lot of people will come up and discuss that innings during the World Cup, which is nice. It’s nice to have been able to touch and affect so many people and hopefully inspire them to want to play the game. But I’ve been able to park it and move on.”
