Aaron Finch, the name that is giving the bowlers some worst nightmares especially in the shortest version of the game. The Aussie opener has been in a league of his own in the past one year as he is going on a leather hunt on the opposition consistently. Finch holds the record for scoring the highest individual score ever in a T20 International (156). He is a kind of batsman who doesn’t fear the bowlers and thrash them to all parts of the park and love playing a big innings.
Finch, who was a part of Pune Warriors in the previous edition of IPL is back into the auction pool after his side pulled out from the tournament. It would be a pleasure for all the teams to have a batsman in the calibre of Finch at the top of their batting Order. But Mumbai Indians in particular will look to sign Finch in order to fill the void created by the retirement of Sachin Tendulkar.
