Stars Abroad: Maxwell lights up Sunday night

Glenn Maxwell was at his genius best on Sunday night, becoming only the second player to score 5 international T20 centuries.

Glenn Maxwell scored 120* from just 55 deliveries in the second T20 against the West Indies, at a strike rate of over 218.

Marcus Stoinis also showed how important he can be with 3/36 to be the best of the Australian bowlers and secure a win and series victory.

Fresh off signing with Gloucestershire for the T20 blast in the winter, Stars all-rounder Beau Webster scored 20* and took two crucial wickets in Tasmania's Marsh Cup win over Queensland. Fellow Star Mark Steketee took a wicket for the Bulls but the chase proved too easy for Tasmania.

Stars Campbell Kellaway and Sam Harper steadied the ship to guide Victoria to a 3 wicket win over South Australia in the Sheffield Shield with both top scoring in the second innings.

Tom Rogers produced a player of the match performance two days later, scoring 60 in Victoria's subsequent Marsh Cup win over South Australia.

International Liam Dawson's Eastern Cape won the SA20 title over the weekend with the Sunrisers claiming back to back titles.   

Sophie Day, Milly Illingworth and Sophie Reid were named as part of the expanded Australia A match along with Tess Flintoff, Kim Garth and Nicole Faltum.

Garth was largely unrewarded in Australia's ODI loss to South Africa but was brilliant with the bat, scoring 42*. In the final ODI, Garth was back to her brilliant best with 3/14. Annabel Sutherland was also among the wickets. Both were named in Australia's test squad against South Africa.
