Aaron Finch completes his half-century

Finch reaches his half century

Aug 25, 2014

Aaron Finch reached his half-century in as many as 59 balls in the first One-Day International against Zimbabwe at Harare Sports Club on Monday. Australia made a good start to their innings. Both the openers are looking comfortable and Finch has taken on the bowling right from the beginning. He has already three huge sixes in this inning along with four boundaries. He will be looking to convert this into a big score.

Australian skipper Michael Clarke has not recovered from a hamstring injury in time for the first match and he will not be be taking a part in their first match after a long break. George Bailey will be captaining the Australians in Clarke’s place.

According to an AFP report, after using as many as 16 players during a three-match ODI series against South Africa in Bulawayo this week, Zimbabwe coach Stephen Mangongo says he will be better placed to field a side that can be competitive.
