“The biggest piece of rubbish I have heard…”: Aaron Finch

Former Australian captain Aaron Finch on Wednesday slammed critics for questioned India batter Virat Kohli’s place in Men in Blue’s T20I set-up, calling the chatter around his spot “the biggest rubbish he has ever heard.”.

As the ICC T20 World Cup set to take place on June 1 in the West Indies/USA draws closer and the fever of the Indian Premier League (IPL) gets stronger, the conversations around Virat’s approach in T20 cricket have produced mixed debates. While many fans/experts have expressed support for Virat because of his stature, impressive T20I resume and experience, some of them have questioned if his style, which leans slightly towards a more conservative territory, is fit for modern, hard-hitting T20 cricket in which batters often launch big sixes from ball one.

Speaking on ESPN’s programme, Finch said, “I cannot understand that whenever an ICC event, irrespective of the format, is coming, every time people talk about Virat Kohli and whether he is under pressure for his spot. This is the biggest piece of rubbish I have ever heard. He is the greatest white ball player I have ever seen.”

“It does not matter if he strikes at 140 and other guys strike at 160, when you pick up a team, you pick up a guy who gets the job done day in and day out for his team during big games. It is ludicrous that we keep having this conversation,” he added.
