Maxwell showing that he's up for another t-20 wc, considering he took retirement from ODI and this is new look Aussie side (t-20).

Overall, I am not much into white ball bilaterals but think they could have pushed this series as 5 t-20 match series, it was building up nicely due to fireworks, some fine hitting performance in last 2 matches.

Yeah. 5 match series would have definitely been better since I couldn't care less about the ODI format these days. The ICC should just get rid of it and divert more resources towards the T20 and Test formats in my opinion.

This would benefit literally everyone involved in the long run since the ODI format seems to be surviving primarily thanks to the ODI World Cup these days.

Arey ODI format has it charm, its just random bilateral with no significance makes it boring, it goes for every bilateral series. In ideal world, series should be scheduled around WC cycle, if T-20 wc is coming then there should be more T-20 series and similarly more ODIs around ODI wc.

It looks like shutter down for Babar and Rizwan in T-20.
