Australia v New Zealand T20 series 2021: Aaron Finch’s run drought ends as Australia earn convincing victory – Sydney Morning Herald
Australia’s white-ball captain made 69 off 44 balls after being saved from a golden duck by a quirk in the decision review system.
Maxwells fireworks powered Australia to 4-208, setting up a comprehensive 64-run victory that kept the visitors alive in the five-game series.
More importantly for Australia, the focus is off their leader. Finch had already been given ringing endorsements by selector George Bailey and coach Andrew McDonald but only a decent score would silence the chatter about the veterans future.
