Glenn Maxwell admits he has been driven by the lure of smashing the fastest ever one-day international century, after he overcame illness to blaze a 40-ball ton against the Netherlands.
The 35-year-old smashed World Cup records in Australia's 309-run win on Wednesday night, bettering South Africa blaster Aiden Markram's 49-ball century from earlier in the tournament against Sri Lanka.
Maxwell has long had his sights set on bigger milestones, well before his 106 from 44 balls in Delhi.
