PSL: In March, England will play three ODIs and three T20Is in the Asian country.
According to reports, Alex Hales will skip England’s trip to Bangladesh in order to play for Islamabad United in the 2018 Pakistan Super League. Islamabad United paid £145,000 for Alex Hales as a platinum pick. The league’s 2023 season is scheduled to run from February 13 to March 19, and from March 1 to March 14, England will play three one-day internationals and one twenty-over international in the Asian country.
As Jonny Bairstow’s injured substitute for the Three Lions in the 2022 T20 World Cup, Hales made his comeback. He demonstrated his value by amassing 212 runs at an average of 42.40 and contributing significantly to England’s World Cup victory. He chased 169 and finished the match unbeaten on 86 off 47 to win Player of the Match against India.
The opener is still part of England’s future plans for white-ball cricket, according to a Telegraph story, and they are “very understanding of the situation and have not put pressure on Hales.” Hales is still being considered for the 2023 ODI World Cup in India even if he is not playing in the current ODI series in South Africa.
When asked about Hales’ chances of playing in ODIs, England coach Matthew Mott was reported by the Mirror as saying, “To me, white-ball cricket is white-ball cricket, he’s demonstrated he’s not a slogger of the ball.” He is a true cricketer, and there is no excuse for him not to be selected for the 50-over team. We don’t play a lot of one-day cricket and we have some difficult selections to make, but if he maintains this strong run of form, he’ll be difficult to keep out.
The first of three ODIs in the series against Bangladesh will take place on March 1. There will thereafter be three T20Is. For a three-match ODI series, the Three Lions are currently in South Africa. With one ODI remaining, the hosts had secured the series victory.
