The catch capped off a sensational all-round performance by Maxwell, who hit a blistering 85 to rescue Australia's flagging innings before contributing in big moments both with the ball and in the field.
While his innings was exceptional, the all-rounder had two catches that were even more breathtaking. To remove Eoin Morgan, Maxwell took a brilliant one-handed reflex catch at gully with the ball seemingly on an unstoppable path to the boundary.
However, his catch to dismiss Plunkett was even better, leaping high to catch a ball which was destined for six, before flinging it in the air with one hand while falling over the rope and recovering his balance and footwork in time to claim a remarkable catch.
