Cricket Australia chairman Lachlan Henderson said that Finch was one of Australia’s “best white-ball players”.
Henderson said, “While he was a tough competitor on the field, Aaron always played the game with a smile on his face and the right spirit.”
“As one of only four male players to captain Australia to World Cup victory, Aaron will always have a special place in the history of Australian cricket.”
Finch’s Melbourne Renegades club called him a “great of Australian cricket”.
