He captained New Zealand’s team in the 2018 edition of the Under-19 Cricket World Cup, where he had a brilliant start to the tournament as he smashed 115 runs against the West Indies, attracting all of us from all over the world.
In the second match of the tournament, he scored the second-fastest fifty in just 18 balls. He emerged as a top run-scorer in the tournament for New Zealand with 338 runs at an average of 67 and having a strike rate of 120, which stands out as the fourth highest among all teams.

His eye-catching performances in the 2020-21 Dream11 Super Smash tournament opened the door for his selection in the New Zealand cricket team, as he was selected in New Zealand’s squad for three match t20-series against Bangladesh.
Finn had the worst possible start to his international career as he failed to bother scorers and was dismissed on a golden duck. He showed his classy and powerful batting in the third t20 match where he scored 71 runs off 29 balls.
In that innings, he reached the 50-run mark in just 18 balls and recorded the second-fastest fifty in 18 balls for New Zealand. After this in March 2021, he was signed by Royal Challengers Bangalore as Josh Philippe’s replacement for the 2021 Indian Premier League.
