#6 Australia - Aaron Finch 156 (63) vs England, 2013

England v Australia: 1st NatWest Series T20
England v Australia: 1st NatWest Series T20

Aaron Finch became the first batsman to score a 150+ individual score in international T20s against England in 2013. Batting first at Southampton, Finch mercilessly destroyed the English pace attack smashing 11 fours and 14 sixes in his record-breaking innings. The opener took 26 balls to score his first 50 runs, added the next 50 in 21 balls and brought up his 150 by playing just 13 more balls.

Finch had 2 hundred-run partnerships with Shaun Marsh for the 2nd wicket and with Shane Watson for the 3rd wicket as he led Australia to a gigantic total of 248/6 in 20 overs. Joe Root's 90 helped England reach closer to the target but ultimately they fell short by 39 runs as Australia's Aaron Finch was rightly awarded the man of the match award.
