Former Australia captain Aaron Finch<\/a> named the best bowler in white-ball cricket he had faced as a batter. During his vast international and franchise cricket career, Finch had faced multiple top-class bowlers. So, naming the best bowler was not easy for him. But, as per the rule of the video, he had to crown one of the top bowlers with the number one spot.<\/p>\n

Finch made his Australia National Cricket Team debut in 2011, and his last international match for Australia was a T20 International (T20I) against Ireland during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup on October 31, 2022. During this period, he had to face several quality fast bowlers across the globe.<\/p>\n

Who is the best pacer in limited-overs cricket, according to Aaron Finch?<\/h2>\n

The 39-year-old is now a retired cricketer, working as a cricket pundit and commentator, and is carrying a bag full of experience, which helped the video to shape competitively. The video, shared by ESPNCricinfo, contains stars like Mohammed Shami, Bhuvneshwar Kumar<\/a>, Jasprit Bumrah, Mark Wood, Kagiso Rabada, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Chris Woakes, Jofra Archer, Tim Southee, Jason Holder, Trent Boult, Stuart Broad, and Mohammad Amir.<\/p>\n

The video starts with a comparison between Mohammed Shami and an England pacer. Shami got eliminated from the competition when the questioner mentioned South African pacer Kagiso Rabada\u2019s name. Kagiso Rabada remained in the competition for a long time, overcoming the hurdles of Shami, Pakistan\u2019s Shaheen Afridi, and Haris Rauf.<\/p>\n

But he had to go outside the contention as Aaron Finch preferred to vote for England\u2019s Chris Woakes. Chris Woakes is another pacer in the video, who remains for a long time in the discussion. The former Australian batter kept the English pacer over Rabada, New Zealand\u2019s Tim Southee, West Indies\u2019 Jason Holder, and another Englishman, Jofra Archer.<\/p>\n

Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah ruled out<\/h2>\n

It is the Indian swing master Bhuvneshwar Kumar who overruled the Protea seamer. Kumar did not last long in the debate as Finch put New Zealand pacer Trent Boult ahead of him. After sustaining a few sets of comparisons, Aaron Finch ruled out the Kiwi pacer, and he preferred to say \u2018Dale Steyn\u2019.<\/p>\n

Indian pacer spearhead Jasprit Bumrah is also in the discussion. But he is not the bowler who captured the number one spot. It is Dale Steyn who concluded the list as the number 1 bowler in the eyes of Aaron Finch.<\/p>\n
