“It would be good to keep playing the game. IPL is a great tournament with the world-class competition but going unsold was not unexpected for me. I’d prefer to be playing cricket, but a little bit of time at home won’t be the worst thing,” Cricket.com.au quoted Finch as saying.

“I’ve been working a few technical things; trying to get a little bit less weight on my front foot. At times I can get a little bit flat-footed and my feet get planted then I struggle to move again – I have my initial movement then I get a little bit stuck,” he said.
“I have talked a lot and worked quite a bit with Andrew McDonald, who has been my problem solver. Whenever I had some sort of issues or things doesn’t go right, I talk with him and he comes out with the solution pretty quick. It is really good to work on your body and investing in you.”
