Alex Hales will take part in the T20 World Cup
Yesterday it became known that Alex Hales will take part in the T20 World Cup. Recall that the World Championship starts in Australia on October 16. Alex Hales was included in the England national team as a replacement for Jonny Bairstow, who will miss the World Championship due to an injury he got while playing golf.
Ben Stokes, one of the leaders of the England national team, is in a complicated relationship with Alex after the incident in Bristol in 2017. However, Stokes has already noted that he respects Hales and believes Alex can significantly benefit the England national team.
Ben also stated that he considers Hales one of the strongest players in the world in the T20 format.
“Alex is definitely one of the best T20 players in the world. Unfortunately, Jonny got injured, and we called another player to replace him. Hales is one of those guys against whom I would definitely not want to play in the shortest format,” said the leader of the England national team Ben Stokes.
