T20 Cricket: The explosive opener Alex Hales has stated that he is currently not very ambitious in the 50-over format and that T20 cricket is his only priority. When questioned about his goals for the ODI World Cup in India, where England will be defending their championship, the daring hitter made his views.
In the ICC T20 World Cup 2022, Alex Hales made a strong impression and was crucial to England’s victory in Australia. Hales, who had never really been considered, was given a direct entry into the team after star batter Jonny Bairstow broke his leg and was declared out indefinitely.
You must consider what lies ahead: Alex Hales
“I believe that for the time being, T20 cricket is all I have on my mind. In the past three years, I have improved significantly and quickly in this style. For the time being, I think I’ll just concentrate on T20 cricket and maybe think about that (50 over cricket). Even though the World Cup will be held in India the following summer, I’m currently concentrating on this competition and the T20 franchise circuit. You simply must find out what the future holds, according to Hales, who was quoted by The Print.
The senior hitter is also thrilled to play in the inaugural ILT20 tournament in the UAE, where he will represent the Desert Vipers.
“Tom Moody and I are good friends. I’ve played under him before, so getting the chance to collaborate with him once more was fantastic. Being a part of a new franchise is something I am really looking forward to,” he said.
As a T20 cricket player, “Being a part of a new and exciting competition is really important for me. The game is expanding, so getting the chance to compete in a nation I enjoy and where I have played cricket frequently over the years is really exciting,” the English power hitter continued.
Alex Hales played well at the T20 World Cup, scoring 212 runs in six games. His most impressive innings were against India in the semifinals, when he scored 86* runs off 47 balls with a mind-blowing strike rate of 182.97. Additionally, Hales and captain Jos Buttler engaged in an unbroken 170-run stand.
