Steven Finn to miss remainder of Australia tour​

Finn will return to the UK to continue working on technical aspects of his game

England fast bowler Steven Finn will miss the remainder of the limited overs series against Australia. The 24 year old will return to the UK to continue working on technical aspects of his game.

Ashley Giles, England ODI and T20 Head Coach, said: "Steven is one of our most talented bowling assets who has played and will continue to play an important role for England. He has been working hard over the last couple of months on technical aspects of his bowling and Steven and the coaches all feel continuing this work out of the performance environment will be beneficial for him."
