Interestingly, this duo played together for an IPL team first before doing so for Australia or any domestic team there! Aaron Finch is renowned for his explosive batting at the top of the order in limited overs cricket across the world. This is in both international cricket and the IPL. Hence, Kings XI Punjab hit the nail on the head to strategically pick him up during the 2018 auction.

Alongside Finch, it looks like the Aussies are developing prodigious T20 talent courtesy the Big Bash League.

Australian pacer Andrew Tye debuted for Gujarat Lions in the IPL

Andrew Tye made a name for himself beyond Western Australian shores, taking two hat-tricks in the IPL at his time with the Gujarat Lions in the 2017 edition.

Finch and Tye were regulars for the Lions that season. Expect them to sizzle up the competition amongst foreign players in the Kings XI Punjab side this time!
