I always looked up to Trescothick says http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Alex-Hales-c985 – Cricket News Update
New England prodigy, Alex Hales hopes to feature regularly in the England set-up, filling the opening berth left by his mentor and former great, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Marcus-Trescothick-c1898.
The youngster is an admirer of the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Somerset-c843 veteran, who he feels was the most naturally gifted player of his generation.
"When I was in my mid-teens I always looked up to Trescothick, even though he was a left-hander and I'm a right-hander," he said.
Further adding, "He is a world-class player. His attacking instincts are something I have tried to model from a young age and if I do get a chance I will try to play like he does."
After failing to open his account on his International T20 debut against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760.
He scored 62 off 48 balls, which 9 boundaries helping his side to a easy 10-wicket victory. The player was also the outstanding performer for his county side, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Nottinghamshire-c826 last term, scoring over 1500 runs in domestic circuit( first-class and Friends
Life T20).
His efforts were rewarded when he was named the young player of the year at the Professional Cricketers Association award night past Thursday, along with Treschothick, who scooped the Player of the year award for the third time.
However, 22-year-old knows that he needs to remain level-headed in order to achieve success with the national side. For that he hopes to be fully prepared for the second T20, played on September 25, 2011 remarking, "I couldn't have any champagne (at the
PCA dinner) but hopefully if I do well on Sunday it will come out again," he said.
For the England management, the summer has been great for all the right reasons. Having claimed the coveted No 1 Test spot, their aim to become the top One Day has been boosted by a host of young stars stepping up and performing well for the team.
Already having the likes of Jade Dernback and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ben-Stokes-c1142, they found another promising talent in Jonny Bairstow. Now, in 6’5”, Hales they have another good young prospect for the future, adding strength and depth to an already potent side
