In his miraculous knock, Maxwell also hit one six that went 122 metres and into the second tier in the stands.
Maxwell seemed destined for a well-deserved century but his surreal knock ended when he chopped on to Kane Richardson on the first ball of the last over.
The Maxwell stunner in Melbourne showed glimpses of his iconic double-century against Afghanistan in the 2023 World Cup, where he single-handedly pulled off a stunning win for his national side.
Stunned by the Maxwell carnage on Sunday, Renegades never recovered and were shot out for 123 in their chase of 166.
