Alex Hales Thankful For Playing For England Again After A Failed Drug Test In 2019
England opener Alex Hales has said ahead of the crucial seven-match T20I series against Pakistan, that he never thought he would don his country's jersey in an international cricket match after he failed a drugs test in 2019 and was left in the wilderness for three years owing to the misdemeanour.
The 33-year-old has been given a second opportunity after he failed a recreational drug test and he is keen to make up for lost time under the new set-up of skipper Jos Buttler and coach Matthew Mott.
