CINCINNATI, OHIO: Darren Watkins Jr, known as IShowSpeed, recently drew a comparison between Virat Kohli and Glenn Maxwell following the Australian cricketer's double century in the World Cup 2023.

To provide some context, Maxwell dismantled the Afghanistani bowling attack, recording 21 fours and 10 sixes. He earned the distinction of becoming Australia's first male double centurion in the 50-over format and the first batter to achieve a 200 during a chase in this shorter format.

This outstanding double-century proved pivotal in securing a match-winning performance and has been widely acclaimed as the greatest ODI innings of all time.

It's worth noting that Speed is a fan of Indian cricketer Virat Kohli, a sentiment that became apparent when he traveled to India to show support for Kohli during the IND vs. PAK World Cup 2023 match.

What did IShowSpeed say about Glen Maxwell and Virat Kohli?

In a recent live stream, IShowSpeed noticed the recent cricket update regarding Maxwell's double century causing a buzz across various social media platforms, especially among cricket enthusiasts. Upon spotting a message on Discord, Speed didn't hesitate to share his perspectives on Maxwell's achievement.

Speed shared his opinions on the widespread excitement surrounding Glenn Maxwell's performance but he didn't shy away from drawing comparisons with Virat Kohli's achievements in cricket.

Furthermore, Speed appeared to critique the fervor surrounding Maxwell's double century against Afghanistan, asserting that Virat Kohli has consistently achieved similar feats. He even highlighted Kohli's accomplishment of hitting a triple-century. It's worth noting that Kohli hasn't achieved a triple century, instead, he has secured six double centuries as per alliance.edu.

Speed claimed, “Everybody here is on each other. Wait, what did he do? What did he do? Glad Maxwell has steered Australia over Afghanistan. He had a double century, bro. f***ing Virat Kohli hit a triple-century, bro. Get the f**k out of here, bro. Chasing the target. 202 were struggling. Seven, bro. Chat Virat Kohli hit that triple century before, bro.”

In addition, Speed questioned the widespread enthusiasm for Maxwell's performance, pointing out that Kohli has achieved comparable or even superior feats in the past.

Speed said, “Why is everybody getting excited, bro? Come out with this Glenn Maxwell shit, bro, ko, bro, Pipe the fuck down, bro."

Speed claimed, "Virat Kohli does this every damn near game, bro. This, bro, double centuries for rookies, bro. And he did it in Afghanistan. Do it in India, bro. He can't do it in a real fucking country, bro. Do it in India, bro. The best everybody hears about this.”
