England won the first T20 match of the three-game 2-run series. Australia needed 15 races on the last lap. Marcus Steinis hit a whopping six on the second ball but couldn’t take advantage.
At the end of the match, Finch gave the credit to England. In addition, he spoke about the need to face his own shortcomings.
“We knew England would do their best to turn around. They have implemented the plan very well. From 12 to 16 overs, we try to push the limit. This is not the first time this has happened. We are working on it. As long as the children learn and improve, that education has happened again ”.
Chasing 163, Finch and David Warner had 97 runs in 11 overs in the opening. After Finch was fired for 47 of 32 balls, Steven Smith went down and hit the limit with the first two balls. After a while, it reached a six. All in all, Australia was on track to an effortless victory.
But the game’s turn began when Smith and Glenn Maxwell made a bad shot in one on Adil Rashid. Warner, who scored 56 in the next over, came back with a bad shot and the team came under pressure. They couldn’t get out of there.
After the game the question arose about Smith-Maxwell’s shot selection. However, Finch blamed Warner and himself.
“They both played shots as planned. If you think about the planning and implementation separately, you’ll understand a little more deeply. T20 cricket is about looking for opportunities.”
“I owe it to Davy (Warner) and to me. We both played well, but neither of us contributed enough to win the game.”
