Alex Hales has returned to the England squad after three years as he was added to the team for the T20I tour of Pakistan as well as the 2022 T20 World Cup, the England and Wales Cricket Board said on Wednesday. Hales, who last played for England in 2019, has been added to the squad as a replacement for wicketkeeper-batter Jonny Bairstow, who sustained an injury while playing golf that has ruled him out of action for the immediate future.
LONDON : England batsman Ollie Pope says Jonny Bairstow, one of the team’s top performers of the summer, will be missed in the decisive third test against South Africa at The Oval, but has backed Harry Brook to rise to the occasion if selected.
South Africa won the first Test at Lord's by an innings and 12 runs, before England, led by the captain marvel Ben Stokes, thrashed the tourists by an innings and 85 runs at Old Trafford. The dust has settled on that encounter and in the interim both teams have lost an important member of their middle order, with England's Jonny Bairstow having suffered a freak leg injury playing golf and South Africa's Rassie van der Dussen nursing a fractured finger. Both seam attacks are world class, and for the third Test running it is likely that the bat – and who can get first innings runs – will decide the outcome.
