By IANS News February 20, 2021 • 16:47 PM View: 2024

Aaron Finch going unsold at the IPL 2021 auction has surprised former Australia Test captain Michael Clarke who said that the rejection will upset Australia's current limited-overs skipper.

Finch, who is expected to lead Australia in the T20 World Cup this year in India in October-November, was released by Royal Challengers Bangalore ahead of Thursday's auction. He set a base price of Rs 1 crore for himself but was not picked by any franchise.
