In the third over of the game, Allen welcomed Taskin Ahmed with a massive six that went out of the ground. 

Finn Allen got out soon after an entertaining knock of 17 in 10 balls which included two fours and a massive six. It sure had his confidence level boosted especially with a big T20 season lined up ahead of him. 

Allen will be joining Virat Kohli's Royal Challengers Bangalore(RCB) for the IPL 2021, which will be starting on 9th April. He got recruited after Josh Phillippe pulled out of the upcoming season due to personal reasons. 

Kiwi batsman is coming from a successful domestic season in which he smashed record 25 sixes during the tournament.
