Aaron Finch has thrown his weight behind Cameron Green, who he believes is still finding his rhythm in this IPL season. Despite being the most expensive overseas player, Green has looked tentative at the crease, struggling to unleash his full potential. Finch insists that Kolkata Knight Riders shouldn’t even think about dropping him down the order, arguing that the best way to build confidence is to give him the backing he needs.

KKR's management has a tricky decision on their hands: do they stick with Green and ride out this rough patch, or shuffle the batting order in search of form? Finch's comments highlight the importance of patience in T20 cricket, especially with a player of Green's calibre. The pressure of a hefty price tag can weigh heavily, but in Finch's eyes, it's all about getting the right mindset back.

As the IPL rolls on, all eyes will be on Green to see if he can shake off the rust and deliver the explosive performances KKR paid for. Will he find his groove, or will KKR's faith be tested further?
