IPL 2020 Auction: 3 T20 league winning captains who might earn expensive contracts

#1 Aaron Finch

Aaron Finch

Finch marshalled Melbourne Renegades to their first-ever Big Bash League title in February this year as his side defeated Glenn Maxwell-led arch-rivals, Melbourne Stars at Marvel Stadium.

The Australian limited-overs skipper, who holds the record for the highest individual score in a T20I inning (scored 172 off 76 balls against Zimbabwe at Harare in July 2018), has so far represented seven different franchises in the IPL- Rajasthan Royals, Delhi Daredevils, Pune Warriors India, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Mumbai Indians, Gujarat Lions and Kings XI Punjab.

Finch who was released by Kings XI Punjab ahead of 2019 IPL auction owing to his lacklustre performance with the bat skipped the last IPL edition considering the workload ahead of 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup and Ashes. The 33-year-old had a fantastic 2019 World Cup campaign where he led the five-time winners to a semi-final finish apart from scoring 507 runs in 10 matches.

The opening batsman who has 1737 IPL runs to his name will be hoping to strike a big deal at the auction and will be aiming to maintain his excellent run in the 2020 IPL as well.
