Aaron James Finch (born 17 November 1986) is an Australian cricket commentator and former international cricketer who previously captained the Australia national cricket team in both One Day International (ODI) and Twenty20 International (T20I) cricket. An opening batter and occasional left arm orthodox spinner, he made his international debut in 2011. He also played for Victoria in domestic cricket and the Melbourne Renegades in the Big Bash League.
First handed captaincy for the Australian T20I squad in 2014, Finch was named Australian Men's Twenty20 International Player of the Year that same year. He was also a member of the 2015 Cricket World Cup squad. Though replaced by as captain in 2016, he returned as captain of the T20I teams in 2018 alongside taking over the ODI team following a short stint as captain to replace an injured Matthew Wade. That same year, he broke the record for the highest individual score in T20I, a record he still holds as of 2026. Scoring 172 against Zimbabwe in July 2018, he beat the previous record he set of 156 off 63 balls against England in August 2013.
