Aaron Finch, the son of Gary Finch and Sue Finch, was born on November 17, 1986, in Colac, Australia. His brother is Mat Finch, and his sister is Jess Finch. Finch Colac West Cricket Club is the place where he started his cricket career, and at that time, he was a wicketkeeper.
Aaron Finch was in the maiden Big Bash League.
Big Bash League started in 2011, and in that year, Melbourne Renegades bought Aaron Finch to their maiden squad, who was a state player during that time. The team benefited from Finch. In addition to the Australian players, there were some talented players from other countries in the league. Finch scored 259 runs in the tournament, while Travis Birt scored 309 and becoming the most runs scored player in the tournament.
Finch played his first match against Sri Lanka.
Aaron Finch made his debut in the first match of a five-match ODI series against Sri Lanka on January 11, 2013. However, we cannot forget the player we unfortunately lost in 2014, Philip Huges, who was the man of the match in the first and the last match of that series. However, Finch was only able to play only two matches in that series, and in those two matches, he came as the opening batsman along with Hughes. Finch scored just 16 off 28 balls in the first match and scored 4 off 15 balls in the second match. His failed bating led him to be replaced by David Warner in the third match. However, Finch's first match was a victory for Australia.
Aaron Finch became the first player to reach 1000 runs in Big Bash.
On December 25, 2015, Aaron Finch became the first player to cross the 1000 runs in the Big Bash League. He achieved that goal as well as became the man of the match by scoring 65 off 45 balls. However, at the time of writing, Aaron Finch is the second-highest run-scorer in Big Bash and is also the cricketer who scored the most fours in the particular league.
He scored the highest runs in T20.
On March 7, 2018, an unbelievable record was set in T20 cricket. On that day, A batsman was able to score the highest individual score in Twenty20 International cricket, and that was Aaron Finch. Aaron Finch scored 172 runs for 76 deliveries with 10 sixes and 16 fours. The incredible thing is that he surpassed his own record, which he was made against England in 2013, by scoring 156 runs for 63 deliveries, which made the Australian team the 4th highest total scored team in the world on that day. On average, one hundred and fifty runs in a T20 match is the number of runs a team scored in the match. So in order for a single player to score that much of runs, he has to play a huge role. So it was an excellent achievement for Aaron Finch to break his own record five years after.
He played his last test match 80 days after he entered Test cricket.
At the time of writing, about 24 hours before the dawn of Halloween, Aaron Finch has played 129 ODIs, 64 T20's and only 5 Tests, which is mindblowing. Why has this talented player only played a few Tests? His Test stats are not so bad. He scored 278 runs in the 10 innings he played until now with two fifties, and his highest inning score is 62, and it was scored in his debut Test match, which was against Pakistan on October 7, 2018. However, he said it is unrealistic to see him again in TEST cricket.
