Aaron Finch is expected to be sidelined for 12 weeks after having surgery on his injured left hamstring in Melbourne on Tuesday. Finch suffered the injury while batting for Mumbai Indians in the IPL last Tuesday and his recovery time-frame will have consequences for his county cricket schedule: he was due to join Yorkshire at the end of May.
"After returning to Australia injured from the IPL, Aaron had scans that confirmed a high grade hamstring injury," Cricket Australia's physio Alex Kountouris said. "As such, Aaron was assessed by a surgeon who felt that he would have a better outcome with surgery.
"Aaron subsequently had surgery yesterday that has gone well. Aaron will now commence his rehabilitation and we expect that rehabilitation to take up to 12 weeks."
