The highest run-scorer in season one of the DP World ILT20, Alex Hales was in Dubai for a short visit last week and said he was thrilled with the new additions to the Desert Vipers squad, believing the line-up looked even stronger for the tournament’s next edition in January 2024.
Shaheen Shah Afridi, Shadab Khan and Azam Khan are the Pakistan signings; bolstered by English batter Adam Hose, Scotland batter Michael Jones and Dutch all-rounder Bas de Leede.
The left-armer, one of the most feared opening bowlers in world cricket, is set to link up with the Vipers for the second edition of the United Arab Emirates T20 League, the ILT20, in early 2024, on a three-year contract.
Colin Munro, Wanindu Hasaranga, Alex Hales, Tom Curran, Matheesha Pathirana, Sheldon Cottrell, and Dinesh Chandimal have all been retained for ILT20 2024.
