Rating the top 10 current ODI batsmen in the world

9. Aaron Finch – 7/10

2019 has been Aaron Finch‘s year with the bat. The Australian stalwart averages 51.86 in the 50-over format and has been in the form of his life. In Steve Smith and David Warner’s absence, it was Finch who stood up and performed incredibly well leading from the front.

The Australian skipper was pivotal to his side’s World Cup campaign in England where they reached the last-4 stage before being eliminated by the hosts. Finch scored 507 runs including two massive 100s against Sri Lanka and England in the group stage.

Finch’s main strength has been his ability to adapt to the situation. A calm and composed figure who is every bit as potent as it can be, Aaron Finch is the perfect package. An on-song Finch can dismantle even the most menacing bowling attacks in the world. 2019 marks the first occasion where Aaron Finch scored more than 1000 runs in a calendar year. He has so far amassed 1141 runs from 23 ODIs this year.
