Bowling Style and 'Finn's Law'

Finn’s bowling technique, specifically his approach to the crease, attracted attention during the early years of his international career. Notably, there were repeated incidents where he unintentionally dislodged the stumps at the non-striker's end while delivering the ball. A significant incident occurred during England’s 2012 tour of South Africa, prompting criticism and debate. In response, Finn modified his run-up in 2013 to prevent further issues. The International Cricket Council (ICC) later introduced a new regulation, informally known as "Finn’s Law," which declared such deliveries as no-balls if the bowler breaks the non-striker’s stumps during delivery.

Personal Life

As of recent public records, Steven Finn is not married but is in a relationship with Rose Hall.

His estimated net worth is approximately 70,000 Euros, although figures may vary with updated financial disclosures.
