Aaron Finch has been signed to Yorkshire as THE SPECIALIST T20batsman .Kane Williamson is due to tour for NZ and is primarily a batsman for the longer version of the game .Basically Williamson is a blocker and Finch is a blaster .
Yorkshire signed Williamson for the tail end of last season and immediately offered him a contract for the 2014 season .The T20competition is split into 2 segments this season and probably wasn't concieved when Williamson signed up for Yorkshire .
Looking forward to seeing Finch play for the Tykes .He could be a massive crowd puller ,judging by his last visit to England .

I didn't actually mean Finch was a direct replacement for Williamson,but it has come about because Yorkshire didn't want to be without an overseas pro.Finch will offer good support to Gale in the field as he has had captaincy experience in the Big Bash.The timing is perfect for the club with most of our England players being available from the start,& Williamson's absence has freed up money that may well have not been available,other clubs were after Finch & offering more money,the Lehmann/Gillespie link played a big part in this signing.

New Zealand struggled to 192 all out in the 2nd Test at Wellington after being put in on a green pitch.Ishant Sharma 6-51 & Mohammed Shami 4-70 exploited the conditions well.Williamson top scored with 47 from 100 balls holding the innings together,he was the 7th wicket to fall after which Neeshan & Southee played some shots to get the total close to 200.
By the time India batted the pitch was starting to lose some of it's green tinge & they closed day 1 on 100-2,with the aggressive Dhawan on 71 not out from 87 balls with 10 4's & one 6.
