New Delhi (The Uttam Hindu): A three-match T20 series is being played between Australia and South Africa. Australia is leading 1-0 after winning the first match. The second match is to be played on Tuesday. Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has a chance to make two big records for Australia in the remaining two matches of the series.

David Warner has taken the most catches in T20 for Australia. Warner has taken 62 catches. Maxwell has taken 61 catches in 122 matches. If Maxwell takes two catches in the remaining two matches of the series against South Africa, he will become the Australian player to take the most catches in T20 for Australia. Maxwell took a brilliant catch in the first T20.

Maxwell has hit 145 sixes in T20 Internationals. If he manages to hit five sixes in the next 2 matches, he can become the first player from Australia to hit 150 sixes in international T20. Maxwell could score just 1 run in the first T20 against South Africa.

Glenn Maxwell has had a great T20 career, and is one of the most dangerous players in the world in this format. He has the ability to turn the match in Australia's favour at any time through his batting, bowling and fielding.

36-year-old Maxwell has scored 2,755 runs in 112 innings of 122 matches with 5 centuries and 11 half-centuries. His highest score is 145 runs. Apart from this, he has also taken 47 wickets.

David Warner (3,277) has scored the most runs in T20 for Australia. Aaron Finch (3,120) is at second place. Maxwell is at third place. However, the record for most centuries and most sixes is in Maxwell's name. The record for most catches will also be added to this soon.
